Default Cam Advice

I'm considering up-grading my 03 Night Train to a hydraulic cam chain tensioner system. Andrew's and Harley's Screaming Eagle systems are two I've looked at so far and I'm seeking advice and or recommendations from you guys.

At the same time while converting, I'll swap cams to something that provides more torque Off-Idle, through Mid-Range, without sacrificing top end.

Any information would be appreciated.

I did my bike using the SE Hyd tensioner Kit with SE 204 cams. Its been almost 2 years with no problems. The SE 204 cams are a good all around cam with strong low and mid range power and does not drop off significantly at the higher rpms.

Overall Im very happy with them and would do the same again.
