I don't think the 255's will fit the inner cam bearings in your lower case.

Neckball is right on = you will need to run a conversion cam

I've run S&S, Andrews & Woods cams in my 95 DWG & 05 RKC. I had problems with first set of Andrews cams for RKC & had to send them back. They did stand behind the cams & switched them after a few calls from two wrench's in PA, the second set ran ok but I wasn't overly impressed. The S&S cams in DWG (evo) pulled hard but the Woods cams are great & pull like a freight train. They are noisy thou. Woods is a lying sack about the numbers he posts for his cams but they do work & I really like them.
