Check HTT for info on this also.

 

Used them for my 98" build. Same setup your considering.
Pulled 109hp and 109ftlbs of tq. Hits 100 ftlbs at 2500rpm and doesnt drop below till around 5700rpm. Very well mannered street setup. With power throughout the entire rpm range. That little woods cam is a solid performer when setup correctly. I would imagine a 107 in the same configuration would land you somewhere in the 120's with a similar torque curve, depending on exhaust used and quality of tune. On top of that, Scott and Craig are stand up guys. I was very happy with the service and workmanship I recieved. I know there are other shops out there that do good work, but the Palmer Brothers definately know their stuff, especially when it comes to builds utilizing woods cams.

 

Be realistic and don't expect a motor with 120 HP. You may get it but I doubt it with those cams. With a good tuning and 2-1 exhaust what you'll get is a bagger that pulls like a ***** from just off idle through about 5000-5200 rpm. And I mean the kinda of torque where you'd better have a good hold on those handlebars. Hillside does great work and you gotta luv a shop that has time to talk to you.

 

I had that exact same set-up done this spring,except I have a power commander and ness/zippers filter.I am extremely happy with it and Scott is a pleasure to do business with.Joe did the tune and I get 40-44mpg riding 2 up.

 

What kinda price are they talking?

I for one would not be suprised in the least to see another 117-120hp/120+tq 107 kit come out of hillsides shop... Have seen 103's hit that with a good 2-1 pipe, spot on tune and THAT CAM. But as you stated even more important than those peak #'s, are the range of usable power that will be achieved. Unlike so many builds we see here that make power for 1200-1800rpm and then fall flat on their face. It will hit hard early, and carry right out the back door.

 

I run a Hillside 107" in my 09 StreetGlide (only difference is I have Stage II heads and the Woods 408-44 cams). I've been very happy with it, Scott is a great guy and will answer all your questions.

 

Ryan, I too have seen dyno sheets with that cam making that much power, but far too often I see them that don't. Most guys get hung up on HP numbers and when they get their motors built are more upset over the dyno sheet than what the bike feels like when it's ridden. I'm one of the those big a__es (260lbs) that needs all the torque he can get. A Hillside 107" with these specs would put a smile on almost any face the first time you whack the throttle in 1st gear at about 5 mph either pull the front end or break the rear tire loose.
