I have a 2000 flhtci, with 88 tc. I usually ride 2 up. I'm tired of having to use full throttle when we take off. I have true duals stage 1 breather and a pc3. Looking for cam options. I guess I'm aggressive I want it to go when I twist the throttle. Thanks in advance

My '01 has true duals, pc3, and breather just like yours. I'm running Hillside's 98 kit with their head work and raised compression, but with a Wood6 cam. Plenty of get up and go.

Once again, if you want to advertise on this site, step up to the plate, swing the proverbial bat, and become a paying site sponsor, as shy of that, it is illegal according to HDF site rules to do otherwise, but then again, you already knew that...........

The Andrews 26 alone will probably get you where you want to go.

Short of pouring all the money into a big bore, you might just want to trade it in on a newer bike.

Actually, no, as the 26 needs a fair compression boost to show off, but if using the Andrews cams, the 21 is the man, for an 88" plug/play application.
