Default Feuling, Andrews, or Crane?????

Trying to decide on cams, any pros/cons between these three? I have an 06 standard with stage 1 carb kit. Also going to have my heads cleaned and shaved when i put the new cams in. Any advice would be great!

I went with the crane 310-2 cams, heads decked .036 and ports cleaned up. The dyno numbers are in my sig. It really woke her up, wouldn't do anything different. Gobs of power where I want it, and still rideable everyday.

When I picked it up, sounded like a new bike. Has a lot more lope to the idle, and sounds meaner under acceleration. The power is just where I wanted it, down low. Lots of torque and it rockets off the line. Runs great in all types of riding, pulls hard at highway speeds too, no issues breaking the 100 mph barrier. Plus the mpg wasn't hurt too much, still average around 45 mpg, except on those days when I really get into it.

Haven't seen many guys use Fueling, Crane has been around a long time, but 5yrs ago they went out of business and I don't know who bought them out and is making there cams now..

Andrews has been making cams probably the longest and have always been a leader in cams for Harleys.


As far as which one will work for U, then U need to post a lot more info about Ur riding style/needs..

Crane/Holley is now a chinese company. I don't deal with them anymore I went with Woods but most wouldn't like the added valve noise. Andrews or Se would be my other choices.

The ramps on the Woods cams are excessive. They tend to make a bit more noise.
