Description
The Wood Performance WM8-408X camshaft is an aggressive, high-torque, high-horsepower camshaft designed for Harley-Davidson Milwaukee-Eight engines, yielding exceptional power in the mid-to-high RPM range. It provides a performance increase that can be felt as a significant “added horsepower” sensation and is known for strong low-end torque. However, it is an aggressive profile that requires a proper dyno tune to function correctly and may necessitate other supporting modifications like heavy-duty clutch springs.
- High-Performance Design:
The WM8-408X is a custom-designed cam by Wood Performance, with aggressive profiles optimized for the Milwaukee-Eight platform.
Exceptional Power:It is engineered to produce very high torque and horsepower, exceeding other cams in its time.
Broad Powerband:It provides strong torque starting around 1800 RPM, peaking around 2500 RPM, and maintaining a strong flatline to 4800+ RPM before a slower drop-off.
Aggressive Profile:This cam is designed for riders seeking powerful acceleration and responsive performance.
- Requires Tuning:
A proper dyno tune is essential for this cam to perform correctly and safely.
Supporting Modifications:You may need other components such as heavy-duty clutch springs and appropriate lifter guides.
Best Use:While powerful, some riders may find the primary power delivery to be in a higher RPM range than their typical riding style.
In summary, the WM8-408X is a high-performance, aggressive cam that will deliver significant power and torque, but it requires proper setup and tuning to achieve its full potential.
