My dad is looking for a little more pop from his stock 2005 Dyna with the 88. It's got a k &n filter and a vance and hines 2-1 exhaust. Other than that it's stock. I have an evo engine that I put a new cam, ignition, and had the head redone. He's thinking intially along these line minus the head work. Is a cam and ignition a good way to add a little hp? What is everyone using? Thanks

 

bump!

 

Let your dad do a search and find what he wants for hinself . This will be like a oil thread. Every body has there idea of what the "best"

 

tell him to get the 95" kit and do that it will probably be the most bang for his buck. around $500 from zanotti in PA go to the web site. vs. a cam at like $200+ and there are 95" kits that have well over 100 hp and 100 ft lbs. tq. thats what I would do.

 

If I had to choose between the big bore or cams, I would choose cams.

Something even easier that he may not have thought about is a power pulley.

I know they have them for the 2006..not sure about the '05s but I would check it out.

 

You will not need an ignition unless the compresion is set to over 10.1.

the Daytona twin tech is my favorite. mine has a Head-Quarters advance curve on it and its wonderful.

cams an give it a good kick in the pants, but some of them dont work so well with added compresion.

I pieced together a BB kit with cams and heads in 2005, but it had issues, I sold all the SE and S&S crap and got a HQ 95 kit with igntion and 7k miles later it rocks like nothing ive ever ridden.

If hes got 3k laying arould buy a worked OE kit from a reputal vendor, if not just pop in a GD cam set like HQ 34s, Woods 6 or Andrews 37s, I will run pretty good.

 

Lots of good options for cams. I believe a good place to look is woods performance, but yes a simple set of cams will wake it up pretty good!

 

Try talking him into fitting a 124 ci S&S Sidewider engine.He will love it.
