SE203 vs. SE211 Cams
I made an appt with my dealer to install SE203 cams in my '06 SG. The service manager recommended going with the SE211 cams for a bigger performance improvement. What does everyone think? I currently have SE air intake, Rinehart tru-duals, and download.

211's, I don't know about that, I'm not sure how the bottom end will be, if your not doing a big bore kit I would say 203, if your doing a big bore you might go with 211's, I have 203's in my EG and I love the way the bike runs and pull's, heck, just a little while ago I couldn't help myself, took off and turned her up yo 6000 rpm's in first,2nd,3rd,4th, then I looked at the speedo and 
,yea, a little over a 100 mph, I guess I'd better slow down, but back to the subject at hand, 203's seem ok to me.

a guy in our hog group has a FXST with a set of 211 cams, all I know about his build is its a 95 ci and has about 10:1 comp , he said that it runs great, pulls well from 2,000 rpm and hit 95hp on the dyno. Although he's had problems with starting it even with a high torque starter.

Or maybe I should go with the Andrews 37G cams?

RE: SE203 vs. SE211 Cams
I wouldn't go with the 37's unless you are going to do headwork. I had 37's in a Superglide, 88", no headwork and it ruined it. Lost my bottom end and picked up a little on top end. Big mistake to put them on a dresser in my opinion.

RE: SE203 vs. SE211 Cams
If I were going to open it up I would go with gear driven. As far as to tell you which one I'll leave that to those that seem to know. From what I have read it seems to me the 26G would be a good choice.
I currently have the 203's with the big bore kit.( no head work) I think mine runs real strong and have been pleased with fuel economyand every other aspects. Are there better builds? I am sure there are but this has been my experience.
I do wish I had the gear driven cams with reports of cam tensioner failures but I've made it to 40,000 miles without any problems. I cut open my last filter and found no signs of failure, YET!
GOOD LUCK!
