I was questioning the benefits of a cam only upgrade on a stock '07 engine in this thread.

No need to get your thang out for a pi$$in contest!!

Sounds likeyou got one hell of a tuner. There are not tomany leftaroundthese days. Everyone I have seen is all about the "it's on the dyno, heres your numbers...gimme some money"

Post some numbers once you get the heads etc done. Good job on the build!!
Take care

Well, all I have is the Bassani True Duals with the Power Curve, the Reverse Megaphone Mufflers, the PCIII and a Arlen Ness Big Sucker. On my last dyno run I ran at 80 hp and ? for the torque. I dont remember to be honest. I cant find my last dyno run sheet. But, I have some cam work coming up so I will post when that is done. Also, by the way, the heat is no different than what my father in law has on his RKwith Samson slip ons.

Hope that helps.......someone.

just installed andrews 37g cams, v&h dresser duals with thunderheader slipons, racetuner, on a stock88, with stock heads....dynoed at 91 horses 93 torque...gained 20hp, 21torque....very pleased.
Congrats, fella. I don't see anything out of the ordinary for these numbers at all...this is common in fact with a Head-Quarters 0034 bolt in and Reinhart True Duals...provided the tuner knows what he's doing.

I think the issue is that the base of comparison has developed around the performance of the SE stuff which will always be conservative. I've seen as much as 112hp/117tq out of a 200695" motor,with Head-Quartersheads, Head-Quarters 0039 cam, stock throttle body, and stock bagger pipes with V&H slip ons. This is considerably more than the 110 SE and any of the advertised results of the HTCC builds for a third the money. Do people easily believe it? No. Would they also believe that the same build got as high as 115hp/125tq? No...but it did.

I don't want to get into a pi**ing match with anybody so don't go into attack mode . Let's just say congrats to the big buck on great results.
