Hi , I have a 2003 standard and I want it to lope more at idle like the older harleys do. I don't want to lose and low end though. Is there a cam to do this with a stock engine? I don't want to go big bore and high comp as of yet.

 

Look into the Woods cams. Call Bob and talk to him about what you want. He'll make a good recommendation for you.

 

it's not an evo. you will never get it. sorry not being a di$K just the facts.

 

the harley screaming eagle 203 cam is a great cam for that.

 

I have the ss510 cams and get a little more lope at aidle but hey it is a twin cam ..

More to it than just changing the cam if you do it right. Can be an expensive prop.

 

Twin cams have an entirely different sound than a typical EVO/shovelhead. If you want a lil more lumpiness to the sound while gaining some lowend torque think about a woods TW-5G cam, or an andrews 26g or 37g cam.

 

I've got Andrews 26G's. Not much lope there, IMO.

 

xxxflhrci, SuperAchmed - or anyone else

Not to hijack the thread, but it kind of relates.

Is it really worth the money to just do a cam change? I know cams are $300 or so, how many hours would a shop charge me for just cams. I'm contemplating some engine mods, nothing radical. Maybe a big bore kit and cams, but may just do cams.

 

It was worth it to me to do gear drive cams so I could get rid of the weak link tensioner set up. I did the work myself. I am an amatuer and can do a cam swap in less than 4 hours. I'd expect to be charged no more than 4 hours labor for a cam swap.
