Ok. Doing headwork on my 2007 1200. Fueling 505/515 or Hammer Jackhammer 570. And discuss...
Those two cam grinds are about as different as they can be. Designed for totally different applications.
IVC on the 570's is 32 degrees, IVC on the Feuling's is 48 degrees. Massive, massive difference.
Overlap on the 570's is 56 degrees with .228/.220 TDC lifts, overlap on the Feuling's is 26 degrees with .137/.150 TDC lifts. Another massive difference.
Max lift is .570/.570 vs. .505/.515. Another massive difference.
In short, it's apples to oranges. Designed totally differently, to operate within totally different constraints, and achieve totally different goals.
That's why I asked! I know you guys know more about cams than anyone. My 2007 1200 has a DK Customs air cleaner, a Cobra 2 into 1 exhaust and a Powervision. I wanted to do the Hammer 1275 kit but it's not in the cards. I figured a little headwork and the 570s would give me a little boost in the midrange but my guy was trying to talk me into the Fuelings. From all I have read the 570s seem to be what I need.

agreed! Im tossing in some HP 560 cams on a bike this winter with a few other goodies to accommodate. Very excited and Ive never been disappointed with a HP product. Their R&D is backed with results, proof and results from customers. Which is the most important part of it. Theyve overcome the obstacles of making proven parts that have been proven by them and customers. Something that is not easily achieved imho. Hence why we dont see much if any fueling cam results for Sportys. Not taking anything away from fueling, there just isnt any info out there. Providing that info and getting it to the public, then have the public back it up isn't an easy operation Im guessing.

I'm totally impressed with your level of knowledge in this area.
