What don’t ya like about the 777s? 555s should have had better bottom? Ya need a plan. The tune is gonna make the difference.

Can’t really lose with any of them... 57H are a perfect fit for your build.

If I bump up to 103 I’ll swap my 48’s for 57’s.

With all that said a good Dynotune with the 777’s should be off the hook?

got power vision tuner with map from fuel moto bike has been on the dyno a few times ( tw777= 100hp/108tq tw555= 89hp/108tq) just not real impressed with woods cams, everyone says it should make more power than that but the dyno doesn't lie, bike runs good and pulls hard just thought i would try a cam thats in between the 555 and 777 thanks for all the info..

I think what everyone is asking is where you are looking to improve the power? From the numbers you quoted, it looks like you're making more power now than before, but you want something closer to what you had before. That would lead me to believe the first half of your curve is soft and you're looking to bump up the bottom end. Keep in mind that the numbers themselves don't mean much. It's all about the curve. One dyno might read higher than the other, weather differences, etc. The cams you are looking to install may lower your peak numbers, but if they make peak torque off idle, they may feel faster than the ones with the better numbers.

I have the woods 777 in my 110 and until I found a good tuner I wan't real satisfied but I have a TTS now and the bike is running great. The 777 is more mid range up torque and most don't believe it but I recently ran up Hwy 77 to Wytheville Va. Bike ran great and got 40mpg, best of both worlds in my opinion. I am not a real performance and go fast kinda guy, plenty of pull for me. Let us know how it works out, I thought about swapping cams but now am satisfied with how she runs.

31 tooth Baker front pulley......and maybe a 68 in the rear. You’ll love the seat of the pants with that.
