Gear Drive Cams

I am sure this has been asked before ..... but here goes anyway.
I have an 06street glide with rineharts, SERTand a screaming eagle air cleaner. Stock motor.
What gear driven cams would provide me with the best all around performance without doing any top end work.
Looking for an added "bump" in performance without spending a fortune. Thanks in advance.

I have asked this before, and I have been recommended to try the HQ 0034. It works with the 88", and if you bump it to 95", it works great with it, as well. As always, check out the search feature... in fact, I am looking cams up I write this...lol

I used the Andrews 26g kit in my 04 and then put in a 95" and was happy. The 26g kit can be had by American Classic Motors on ebay as an entire kit for under $500

Woods TW-6, HeadQuarters HQ-0034, Andrews 21 or 26, S&S 510.........they are all good bolt-in cams for a stage 1 88" motor.

RE: Gear Drive Cams

You can e-mail Andrews from their web site for a recommendation. I just installed their 37G cams, they work with stock heads and have good low end torque("02 Electra, already had 95" with 10.25 to 1 comp.). I bought the kit from American Classic on E-Bay and saved enough to buy the tools and did it myself. Be sure to check your crank run out before you buy the gear drive kit - it must be less than .003 and when researching this installation I heard that some newer bikes exceeded this. I was real pleased with the result - it has 5th gear accelleration like it did in 3rd before.
