Just curious if doing a cam change like this voids out the warranty.

I was thinking of the same cams, but a dealer I talked to said to use the 255's looks like it may be too much for stock heads. If so I'll go with the 204's

This depends on who does it and what parts are used. Usually, if it's done when the bike is purchased with HD parts, it won't void the warranty. But some dealers may not honor it, if its not the dealer who did the work. This is a tough question and can be based on dealer discretion.

This may help SE 204 Cam Kit Part Number 25464-06, you will also need a Cam install kit 17045-99c. this will fit the 08 96".

Anything above 204 cams will need head work.

Thats what I was thinking. The dealer I was talking to was trying to talk me into them. They look big on papaer. I will go with the 204's. Love to do some headwork but no $$ for that right now. Thanks

Woods TW-6b, Andrews 37b, and SE204 all look pretty much the same. Has anyone tried the woods or andrews cams. Maybe one has an edge over the other 2?

Ohh my God yes...

I've heard both of Called to Duty's bikes, Both his 07 Deuce and 09 NT and they have A great rumpity-rump, sound at idle.

Of course its still a TC 96" and they Idle faster than the 88's even, but the 204's sound BADA$$ compared to a Stock cam in the 96" U won't be dissapointed.

Its A lot more than my andrews 26h's & they sound a little better than stock, but not like the SE204's..

Don't forget to Look at the THREAD ["DYNO" number for SOFTAILS], Its A sticky thread, at the top of page 1 in this softail section.

It has dyno sheets and or munbers of different motors builds with different cams.

The Touring section also has a dyno area, They have a lot more postings (over a thousand) than our Softail area.

Time has proven the woods cams will win hands downs with there fast ramp angles .. There a lot More $$$, but they do perform, some think they are noisey, but most overlook that..

When I beat our 1/2 of my brains decieding which cams to put in I used the below site to help me deciede which cam to get. they show all the numbers so U can make a really good choice.

www.bigboyzcycles.com/tccams.htm

U can compare most all the cams on the market side by side with this program
and it lets U put 3 different cams on the screen at
a time..
