Vance & Hines 575 Performance Cam for 103TC
#21
Follow up on Cam install...
The install went awesome and taking my time, breaking for lunch and helping the wife clean up her yard sale it took me about 4 hours...
I used the Screaming Eagle Quickie pushrods, Screaming Eagle Hi output oil pump and cam plate, with the Vance and Hines 575 cams...
After install I uploaded the new map on the FP3 and went out riding...
I had a bit of sputtering on the low end so I decided to enter the autotune...
I ran auto tune 3 times applying each time afterwards (aprox an hour of riding each time.) I then finished auto tune and the bike ran GREAT...
on way home I had a couple of sputters rolling from 1st to 2nd so I called V&H Monday morning, uploaded them my latest map, they made some adjustments to the settings and sent me back a new map... Its been raining here so I have not had a chance to try the new map out yet.
Here are some of the photos and I will be uploading before and after video so you can hear the sound difference.

I was tossed between those and the screaming eagle quickies
I ended up going with the Screaming Eagle ones.. They were cheaper with good reviews plus the caps look like the stock one's

Tearing back down
Bike seems slow... think I might have an oil scavenging issue... Rode it and the oil level went down (classic scavenging issue)
Pesky oil pump o-ring possibly
I Definitely have not seen an improvement in power anywhere thus far and I think that something just isn't right... I expected to be able to tell a good bit of difference...
I assumed changing the cams would do a bit more than change the sound...
Anyone else's feedback?
I know what I am doing today

Hope you get it worked out, you could run the bike a few minutes and cut the engine off before it Idles a bunch and pull the bottom drain plug from the bottom of the block and measure the oil, if it's 4 to 6 oz you shouldn't have a sumping issue, if it's more then yea, it's sumping. You will have to be very careful to not over tighten that plug on the bottom though, it's a pipe threads so it could crack the block if over tightened.
Personally if it's not sumping then it's tune, my friends at J&B Performance won't use the FP3 at all and there good tuners.
This dyno sheet shows a FP3 tune vs a dyno tune with a Power Vision tuner, they tried several different downloads from V&H's and even tried the auto tune feature also, well as you can see there's a huge difference in how the bike ran and the OP is beyond satisfied.
