Cool 103 cam choices

Howdy.
I'm doing this for a friend. He has a 2010 Ultra Classic with a stock 103 cu in. He wants do a cam change for a little more power. We both have been looking at the SE255 cams and according to what we've read this seems to be what he's looking for. Just cams, no big bore for now but maybe later. The bike has about 25,000 miles on it and it runs great just want to boost the power a little. He's a two up rider 99% of the time and the torque on the 255's seems like what he's after. I have the Woods 222's (Fuel Moto awesome to deal with) in my EG that has a 96 cu in and I'm very happy with the Woods cams.
Looking for suggestions on cams that other members have tried and what seems to work for them.
Thanks in advance for any input.
Ride Safe

48s are a winner, imo although i just did mr103 cams by s&s, id have to suggest taking a look at the Tman 555 torqster. Btw i was doing some reading today and came across a cam designed by steve cole called the TTS 100.

Friends don't let friends run 255s in 103s. I'd recommend Andrews 57s but at least go 48s/222s.

Those 48's are always a home run.
Have an ultra low-mileage used set here, for $200.00, along with all else for a painless install.

Yes they are! I put them in on Scott's recommendation and I absolutely love them!

The TTS-100 cams are definitely a set worth strong consideration for what you describe. I have a pal who just had them installed in his '14 FLHX 103". Jackpot 2-1-2 header, 3.5" Rineharts muffs, highflow a/c, and tuned 91hp 115tq, hits 100tq at 2200rpm. If I remember the numbers correctly.
