Default 57h cams over Rushmore

Anyone swapped their Rushmore cams out for 57h cams, while keeping stage one setup? Like, dislike? Thanks

I had them in my 14 sgs for near 2 years
I loved them too lazy to take them out when I sold bike
way better than stock pressed cam lobes
Also put in Timkin bearings
I also had Beehive springs for about a year
with titanium retainers
Cam works well with stock springs

not bad
the 255 cams are better at low end
The 57h are real good at 2000 say to 6000
They do take out some compression out compare to 255 cams
More overlap
Good price good company
had I also had the 54h

Myanoch,
You ran the 54's with stock compression in the 14 FLHX?

I have the 57h in my 14 SGS and I am not dissapointed. I have yet to get a proper tune and have been using a map a fellow member sent me. I plan to get a solid tune soon. I cannot publish numbers for that reason. Overall, they are pretty decent.

I had a 10:1 103 with 54h in my 2009 road king. Ran awesome from 2900 and up. I think my tune was off on timing for low end, and worked on that. It got better, but there is only so much that be done with that combo.

I believe the difference is the 57h are better at lower end than the 54h
But that is hard to feel for me because of different time, tunes and bikesI would still buy anther set of 57h's for my bike
Just don't know if its worth it on the cvo on another 103
yes I would

57s in a 14 limited, stage1 slimlines, 10,000 miles on the cams no issues, dyno tuned, 96hp 5th gear pull. Love them, haul azz above 2500rpm right where I live to be. Touring, pulling, passing there great, not to mention playing. You will not be disappointed! IMHO
