Yes, this one was stock 110" heads and head gaskets. The previous one I posted had .030" head gaskets installed...

I have been pondering those same redshift cams. I am currently at 94.21 HP and 114.76 TQ stock CVO Breakout with the exception of V&H Big Radius pipes that came with her from the dealer and TTS dyno tune. Good to see actually numbers put up. Folks has also suggested to me in counter to those cams (not wanting head work, just bolt in) TTS-150s, I just have a hard time pulling the trigger on something with no listed cam specs.

There is something wrong with your TQ number; missing some digits. Mr. Cole keeps his cam specs under tight wraps but you can get an idea by looking for the specs on TTS-100 cams; they will be similar. You can Google TTS-150 cams and several dyno charts will pop up as will a comparison between the SE255 and TTS-100 cam specs. You can also call Mr. Cole directly and talk to him about his cams.

Oops lol fixed it.
I have no I doubt they are good cams as they come so highly recommended. I'm just so used to seeing Spec's freely published for motorcycles and other vehicles this kind of thing has me scratching my head.
That being said if I still choose to go that road I will likely go with the 150s but as of right now I'm giving serious thought to a 124 kit

ok the tuning is done, final numbers at 98.17 and 114.35, same exaust as cam in, stock headpipe with Rinehart Slip ons and H-d's forward facing, cone style air cleaner. up 18 hp and 11 or so tq. not bad for just a bolt in, i'll post up the graphs in the next few days. i think that i would have made more and better TQ with a good 2-1 on it, but these stock headpipes have very cool black chrome like finish and look very cool with the black mufflers and the overall color scheme of the bike. my opinion is that for a straight bolt in with no other work or mods, as long as you have a decent exhaust system in play these work pretty good.

I have also been recommended a Mackie 585 and a Woods 777. Not sure all the differences or whats best for my setup.
What cam did you eventually go for? I am n exactly same set up looking for a cam...

Resurrecting an old thread. Scott and Kirby you recommend bumping the compression:

10.0 for the Redshift 587

10.25-1 for the S&S 570

10.50-1 for the Woods 555

What's the difference in the way these cams actually perform?

Also do you recommend replacing the stock lifters with S&S Premium Lifters. Also the stock valve springs with beehives for overall reliability?

Compression would have to be addressed to take full advantage of the 570 in a CVO or S motor application?
10:1 is where you want to be. Just put them in a stock 9.6:1 103 and my cc is 191/189. I was planning to deck the heads and put a .030 head gasket in but after doing the compression test I'm just doing the .030 head gasket. That'll put it around 205psi.. I wouldn't go much more than 210, 220psi max.
Some here were telling me you need 10.5 in a 103. Not on pump gas. 10.2 would be pushing it imo.
Like someone here said, the added exhaust duration helps with heat which is great if you ride like I do.
The 570s are a good choice if you don't care about lugging the motor and doing 6th gear roll ons at 1800rpm. It's not real happy much below 2000rpm tho I have lugged it at 1800 playing with timing. I cruise at 2600-2800ish and seldom use 6th gear unless I'm doing 80+mph which is rarely.
