S&S 465C cam questions
#11
Just installed the 465 and S&S sidewinder (no cat) in a 18 streetglide. Bike has a s.e. heavy breather and a s.e. smart tuner, had V&H power duals. Have to say not impressed so far. Havent had a chance to put alot of miles on with the weather, to let the smart tune to readjust. I dont feel much of a diffrents in the seat of the pants, for the money invested. I know the tuner holds back a bit,but cant imagine that much. Im waiting till the wife and i get out, to do some roll ons. She is runnning the same as me, with a 2 into1 rinehartt and no cam. Ill see what that brings before i make my next move .
Ask some of the experts like Steve Cole, he will explain it better than I could. Also you ask Jamie at Fuel Moto too.
I'm just trying to help so don't kill the the messenger.

The SEPST even with widebands/ "smart tune" is holding you back a ton. Had that tuner setup on my all SE stage II 17FLTRU. It's ok if your using all SE stuff, but won't adjust the map enough for you current setup. Too much to explain typing on a smart phone, but highly recommend using TTS Mastertune or a Powervision. Good luck.

Converting the dyno to US Imperial system based on the Dyno chart on the 2nd run = HP is 109 ft-lbs at 4.9 RPM and Torque is roughly 150 ft-lbs at 3.1 RPM for us Americans here on a 124ci M8 motor. Putting it mildy its all torque and no horsepower to carry. S&S 465 is not a good system when going to high compression and 124CI. I'm sorry but looking at this you must be pinging like crazy and killing your motor. Short intake duration and closing in a high compression engine is not good. Looking at this dyno I would be very scared of this motor over heating. the S&S 475 or the 550 are have way better numbers and better static compression than this. Alex please change this cam before your left on the side of the road with fried piston rings.

Bumping this slightly moldy thread to ask if you ever found a resolution to this disappointing performance?
I'll be using most of the same components as you did (465C cam, catless S&S Sidewinder, S&S lifters and Stealth air cleaner). I'll be getting a dyno tune using TTS though so hope mine does much better.

Yes, came up with a resolution. I had the pro tuner and smart tuner taken off and had a PV put on and tuned. There was a very noticeable difference all around, on the way it ran.. The dealership did the tuning and im sure other tuners could tweek out a little more, but im very happy on the way it works. Its very responsive down low. I'd have to find the sheet, but it didnt get numbers like others have had on here, but seat of the pants very happy. We trade the wifes 18 street glide and now she is riding this one and i bought a 19 STGS. I put a PV in from the start and i have just put in a S&S 475, Havent had a chance to try it yet, but the weather is starting to come around.

In the search for this thread I also came across a Facebook post from Fuel Moto where they got 100 hp/119 tq out of a 107 with 465 cam, 2:1:2 header and a PV tune. I'd be very happy with numbers like those.
(Oh and hi, S&S! Thanks for making such great products.)
