Default Help which cams

I have a 2011 flhtk , dresser duals,with se ac hi flow kn filter,and PC no vision. Which cam. TT 100 or Andrews 57 h. Will I have to shim the 57 h ? Will I have trouble tuning the TT 100? I do a little two up riding mostly just me. Need somebody to help me make up my mind.

In a touring bike for drop in cams of the 2 you asked about tts100 by far. I have the mr103 cams in my softail, and they are more like the 57s. I go for the stump puller cam, not a mid range cam as it will feel much better in a heavy bike. Plan on a dyno tune by a proven operator. No canned maps

The 57's need 10:0-1 compression for optimal performance.

Is you bike one of the PowerPak options with the 103?

Here's my dyno with the mods in signature. No experience with the TTS cam but I can't speak highly enough of the 57h as a drop-in stock-headed stock compression cam.

Only vehicle.. car/truck/bike/boat/4 wheeler... I regret selling was my 11 flhtk.
Had harley stage 1 ac, fulsac xpipe, s&s lifters, cometic .030 headgaskets for a little more compression, andrews 54h, tuned with tts mastertune by latus motorsports. It was making around 98/106 hp/tq and tho it was hardly noticeable, it had the characteristic xpipe dyno dip at lower rpm accentuated by the v&h ovals. I have no experience with the specific cams you mentioned but can say I loved the way my bike ran with the 54h cams, which are a midrange cam and very similar to the 57h. Andrews 54h/57h are known for being easy on the valve train and quiet due to having a milder ramp rate, and i can attest that my valve train was very quiet with the 54h. I put around 20-30k miles on the bike after the cam install, often times loaded and 2 up, and absolutely loved the way the engine behaved with that setup. Just my 2 cents. Hope it helps.

Andrews 48 or a Cyclerama 570 are options.

I'm looking for cams as well..
Any suggestions for someone who rides 2 up 40% of the time (2000 to 3000rpm range) and 60% solo (3000 to 5500 rpm range)?
One that pulls thru 5000? TTS 150?
