Has anyone done just a cam swap? I would like to change cams out of a 110 SE kit that I am having installed in my '07 Dyna. I am not changing the SE mufflers (my bike is loud enough, thank you) or the SE A/C. Since I am making a dresser out of my Dyna and I like torque I want a touring type cam. I know I prob should have kept the 255s but they are already sold.
Recommendations anyone.
My two choices would be either the Andrews 54H of a Dave Mackie TC575L, but both of those come in late, in order to get the cam that will provide you with the results you want, call or email Andrew and/or Dave Mackie, S&S, Woods (but Woods will not recommend a cam unless you call them).
I called Woods. He talked fast and didn't really seem to listen to me. He recommended way too much cam for my style of riding. I talked with my mechanic and decided not to split the cases and do the 110. I am going with the S&S 106 and Andrews 54H cams. Anyone interested in a 110 kit minus the SE A/C, minus the SE mufflers, minus the 255 cams. Already sold those parts.
I called Woods. He talked fast and didn't really seem to listen to me. He recommended way too much cam for my style of riding.
I basically got the same thing through e-mail with woods, its a shame too, because they are right down the road (about 90 miles from the house), I used their cams the first time, but I don't thing that I got a good recommendation on what cam to use. (FACT 1- when I got mine the 110 was brand spankin new, and NO ONE had any ideal about it)
So my search continues (FACT 2- now that the 110 has been out a while more companies have had time to do some R&D, and can now make a better recommendation)
I installed the Andrews 54H in my 08 SG 103 BigBore. Bean did the street port. Local guy did the SERT tune. 96HP 120TQ. I have an 09 SE Fat Bob and the warranty will be running out soon. I'm going to do the same exact mods to it. The 54H cams work great for what you are looking for. On my SG it was all about torque as I do serious two up, loaded to the hilt touring. The 54h cams gave me everything I want and more. Not being an aggressive rider I get around 42/45 MPG which is important to me.
