FXDLS HP/TQ Upgrades
I am considering a number of performance upgrades and I want to get some opinions....
I commute to work in the city on my fxdls and I am only able to get out on the open roads on the weekends. That said, I am looking to do a cam upgrade so I can get more torque on the lower end. I am already ruling out Harley’s 117 kit because from what I have read, that engine runs properly at higher consistent rpms, on the open road.
If I am planning on getting cam work done, I am open to going all out with a kit and an oil pump/plate.
What are your recommendations? S&S? Feuling?
I am also curious to us to hear from people who are running Barnett clutches and the difference they see vs stock.
Thanks!

I'm running s&s 625 cams in my fxdls. Stock displacement but I've got some head work and high compression pistons in mine. Netted 117 hp/119 torque at the wheel. Well performing cam on the mid to upper range. If you aren't planning on doing other engine work I'd say probably a grind more like a 583 or 585. But my personal outlook.
