Default Woods 222

Hey guys new here to the forum! I have a 2010 Electra glide limited I'm gonna do the woods 222 in the spring, was wondering if anyone has ran these cams and what you think of them! Currently I have rinehart true duals and stock air cleaner. I'm going to be doing the screaming eagle heavy breather. Thinking of doing the SE adjustable pushrods and for lifters either s&s or woods lifters. Also gonna do the Barnett clutch spring. I have the SE race tuner so I'm gonna have everything tuned when I'm done at the local shop here in Manchester nh r&r cycles

Good cam choice. Can also use +30 perfect fit pushrods with that cam. Pretty easy to go through the top rockers as well. I'd go with S&S lifters. Doing work yourself?

Ya I'm leaning towards the s&s lifters, I've seen a lot of complaints about the woods lifters. A buddy of mine is a Harley mechanic so we do all the work in his garage and I pay him in beer haha

I had the 222's in my 08 SG and loved them. Great low end torque!

They pull well to 5k but I have read of othhers saying they drop off at 4500. I was looking for something with good torque at cruising rpm and these are the best in my opinion but if torque in the mid to upper rpm is desireable I would say move up to the 555's.

I would recommend the T-man 555 torqster, SE 204s, or Andrews 57s, they should give you good you good tq down low, but will carry out better on top.

I have the TW-222s with Rinehart extreme true duals. I'm pretty pleased with them as a bolt in cam for a 103. They pull like a freight train down low and do run out of steam on the top end (4500+ rpm), but for a real world everyday touring bike they are great. I've been very happy with mine.

If you want to bench race or brag about your dyno numbers, pick another cam.
