Default RE: Cam Mods for 95 Cubes.

In chosing a cam you need to find out what your compreshion ratio is. You said you have flowed heads so I assume they are reworked stockers. If so I'm sure they were decked also. You need to find out before you chose a cam. Once you know the ratio you need to check run out on crank to find out if you can run gear drive cam. If you stay with chains you can skip this step. With compression ratio known then you can start narrowing down cam choices based on your riding style. The 570 that I have in my 95 at 10:1 would be a poor choice for a 95 with .004 crank run out and 9.5:1 compression. Just a few things to consider.

I have a 95 inch kit in my Soft tail. I had SE204's with a little headwork and stock carb. It made 84 horse and 102 torque. I changed the cams to 585g S&S cams, more head work, roller rockers and a 44mm carb. I haven't had the bike dynoed again but the difference is huge. If your looking for alot of torque the 204's are good. But look into HEADQUARTERS cams, I'm putting a set into my dad's Roadking right now. They claim their cam in a stock 88-inch produced 89 horse and 95 torque.

I also did the S&S 510G...no head work...for me the key was dependability, mid-range performance...I didn't want to push my compression too high and wasn't looking to burn off the line.
