Pinion Gears OHV Big Twin →1953

Precise reproduction of the factory cam as used in 61” OHV Knuckleheads 1936-1939. All measurements and specs were taken from an original example. It features the distinctive six lightening holes in the gear, hence the nickname "Light(e)ning" cam. Fits all Knucklehead 61” and 74” models and years.

After the successful introduction of the FLH Super Sport Solo Panhead in 1955, the factory felt that its high compression motor needed a special cam to deliver the full potential, or Z-O-O-M in Milwaukee speak. So for the following model year the FLH received a performance cam, called "Victory" or "H" cam. The works magazine "The Enthusiast" claimed a significant increase of 12% in horsepower and torque over the FL models that would make the motorcycle "take off like a guided missile". As a unique feature the H cam has different intake lobe profiles for the front and rear cylinder (see chart). This was done by the MoCo to even-out the fuel distribution and the power between the front and rear cylinders. The Cannonball reproduction of the Victory cam is precisely manufactured, with measurements and specs taken from a perfect original example.
