Anyone do an aftermarket cam with a harley 107 to 114 stage 4 yet?
Been going all different directions on what I want to do with my bike. Thinking lately a stage iv with a non harley cam. Curious if anyone has done it yet? I have a redshift 468 and s&s 475 sitting on the shelf but don't know if either of those would be a good option.

Just asking -- why would you do that, when you could get a Fuelmoto big bore kit for about $1,000 less, including the cam of your choice?
To me the whole point of going with the Harley stage kits is to keep the warranty. If you modify the package you void the warranty, so if the warranty's gone either way, why not go with a higher-performing, arguably better-made product that costs less? The FM 120" kit works on an M8 107, bumps the displacement twice as much as the Harley 114 kit, and costs $1,000 less to buy, and if you get it installed it's even that much less as well. You can get the kit, have it installed and dyno-tuned for about the same cost as the Harley Stage IV kit parts alone.

The first question you need to ask yourself is what are you looking for? IF cost is a concern I would look at a stage III rather than a Stage IV. I would not use the HD cam in either kit as there are plenty of better choices. If you go with the increased displacement and compression ratio IMHO both of the cams you have listed would come in a little short of what you could have.

I have the harley torque cam in mine now. I planned to just change cams to hold me over for a while till some more of the big bore aftermarket got figured out so I ordered the rs468. Then after the cam testing I liked the s&s 475c better so I bought it. Now I'm undecided again and might just do the big bore now.
