I ride 2-up maybe 10% of the time (combined weight 250 lbs). I've got a SE Heavy Breather, D&D Fat Cat w/ louvered baffles, and PV Target Tune. I operate more in the 2500-4000 rpm range. I had been looking at the 48H but Andrews recommended the 57H, particularly for the lighter bikes such as the Dyna.

do you have the 57's in your low rider? how do you like them if so? I am thinking that maybe the 57 would be a better choice. was thinking was a bit high lift but actually is less than 1/16in lift more than the stock cam which specs say is .510. if I do go with the 57, will check if fuel moto can send a tune for my PV.
when I installed 48's in my 96 they had a map for what I had
runs good as is

well, I found a good used set of woods tw222 cams, have them on the way.
do not have the cam chest open yet so have not looked at the tensioners. was wondering if anyone out there has tried the S&S tensioners, p/n 330-0518? they do not cost much more than the stock HD ones and appear to be a better quality. am thinking on ordering a set and installing as do not want to have to get into the cam chest again soon.

S&S is usually Good Quality .. I went with S&S Adjustable Pushrods but opted for the SE Tensioner Upgrade and it included the Fueling Oil Pump Upgrade and got the whole package for about 1/2 Price ..

that is what I am looking for is torque down low. fuel moto shows a map on a set up similar to what I have that looks good, the 222's do ok even in the upper rpm compared to stock and I don't think my bike has ever seen 5k on the tach.

that is why I have a set of S&S premium lifters and a set of quickie push rods ready for when the cams arrive. am thinking on ordering the S&S chain tensioners so will not have to go into the cam chest for a long time, plus the S&S have replaceable shoes where as the HD tensioners you have to buy the whole set up.
