Ive changed my mind about my setup and decided to just do 204 cams for now(stock tc88),Whats the cheapest set of tools for the inner cam bearings???
Ive got my mind set on the 204's,how will they do with stock compression

 

It will run okay. Pretty low static/corrected compression. I would at least change head gaskets to .030 to get at least 8.5 corrected

 

will I have any piston to valve clearance issues with the .030 HG????

 

Negative ... they're 204s ...

Not sure if you can use bearing puller and installer you can 'borrow' from Auto Zone ... I know Jims and George's Garage are a couple of reliable makers ... you might check Phat Performance or Dr V-Twin for competetive pricing on them if you need to buy them ....

 

4* advance key otherwise they will be a dog in the low/mid. .03 gasket is not worth the hassle or money unless you do headwork also. Better cams out their then 204's in an 88".

I used bearing puller from auto zone - no problem. Used oven freezer method to r and r cams.

 

the 204's seemed to have a decent curve and I liked the way they sound...I definatly want to put something in that I can hear!!!! what other cams would you recommend that has a good pwr/trq curve and has a really nice choppy idle??? completely open to suggestions!!! the heads and pistons will remain stock for now

 

I have a tc88 with 203 cams which is what my mechanic suggested i use since i didn't want to do any other internal mods. Added a high flow ac and dyno tuned. now has 80+ hp and 90+ torque. Not a powerhouse but it outruns a stock 96 and my buddy with a stock 110 wants his to idle like mine.

 

what about the crane 310-2 or the s&s 510,how do they sound and perform??? any sound bytes or anyone currently running them

 

Andrews 26 or 37 would also be good choices for streetable cams ....

Nightrider.com has a cam specification table that shows intake open/close, exhaust open/close, duration, lobe separation angle, lift, etc. for a lot of cams that are currently available for H-D Twin Cam motors at: http://www.nightrider.com/biketech/hdcamsspecs.htm#pdf

Click on the link at the bottom of the page where it says:

"View all Harley-Davidson camshaft specifications
Harley-Davidson Master Camshaft Specification List (link)
you must have Adobe Reader to view the specification list
Camshaft list last updated January 15, 2006"

As it indicates the data is about 5 years old, so it doesn't show some of the newer cam grinds ... notable ones being Woods 555, and a couple of Woods' other cams ....

I have been really happy with my Andrews TW37B cams I installed last August ... when I installed them, I had a stock 88A motor with Stage I (A/C, exhaust) and ThunderMax (EFI controller) ... I've since installed a 95" big bore kit ....

I posted some data you might consider in your cam selection on another thread at (especially post #10):

While probably true it will be a little bit of a dog down low, the 204 has advance ground in, I am not sure I'd put the 4* advance key on it. He's running a dyna (light bike), not a bagger.

Rev it up a little bit, stay in gear longer and you'll probably be fine.
