I put SE211s in mine,, goes like hell! That said you will get varying input on this just like exhaust. Do a search on cams and you will have plenty to read.

Just did it on my 07 RK: Big Sucker, Fat Cat, HeadQuarters 500 cam and a SERT dyno tune.
Got 90HP and 93 Torque.

I've been going back and forth for several months trying to decide. I have finally decided to go with the Andrews 26H cams. Right or wrong, that's what I'm gonna do. I just need to pick up the phone...

I second the HD Screamin' Eagle 211, 508 lift cams. They hold the torque across the entire power band/range on the dyno chart. I am running 2:1 Super Trapps with these cams.
