I have the Andrews 26H cams. I would have went with the 37H but got a great deal on these from a guy that changed his mind and never installed them. The bike hasn't been dynod so I can't give any numbers. Best thing to do is HONESTLY identify what you want from the bike before buying. Many times bigger isn't always better.

I dropped in the 37's and I'm happy with them but if you ride two up most of the time the 26's would be better cams, the intake valve closing at 35 degrees brings the TQ on early.

Absolutely on the money with this...as you mentioned no motor work & alot of 2-up riding! Jarhead is on the money aswell with the TW-6-6...a very good set! I usually suggest those if ya want a good set now & mild head work & BB down the road. Those 26's are great for more torque in a stocker!

I've been told by one of the best tuners around (Doc1), that the Andrews 26 cam is probably the best cam for our 88 ci. motors. The woods cam he said is to much cam for this motor.. would be good with a 95" big bore I'm sure. But he STRONGLY reccomended the 26.
