No Ive had the \\; Mikuni 42mm, SE Stage I, and Thunderheaders on the winter before last. The only adj he had to make was turned the air screw on the side and dropped the idle some. Tuned it on the Crane ignition. He really knows his Harleys and accessories.

i think im going with the andrews 26h cams..im going to daytona this weekend and all next week and when i get back im going to order them and install myself..from what i,ve read im thinking i wont need any fancy tools..seems pretty cut and dry..i did find all the tools needed to do the job but its going to cost 135bucks and i might never use them again ..

Head Quarters "Hurricane" ....and the install is easy.... only tools you really should use is the 'gear block' for the teeth on the cams and the oil pump alignment screws
 \\;
....and the performance across the power range is very significant!
 \\;
quality product, excellent customer service and support from Doug and Kevin!
 \\;
....and when you do it- if you do it- get the easy install pushrods and pushrod covers!... will make things much easier

i went with the s&\\;s 510's gear drive push rods and p.c.3 and i'm happy with them. it's been a year now with no regrets. and when i move up to the 95 kit they will still work.

easy install pushrods by HQ are an excellent pushrod!...and yes, the covers are indeed chrome...a separate purchase, however...unlike Harley's SE kit
 \\;
after i installed the cams, i installed a PC3 that jamie at fuelmoto pre-mapped for me....in addition to a significant performance gain, the bike runs much cooler!
 \\;
you won't be disappointed
