I did a cam upgrade last winter I used a Head Quarters HQ500 cam in my bike and I am very pleased with the results. The bike runs WAY better than it did, it sounds WAY better than it did, it has no starting problems like so many 103's have, in doesn't bang anymore on start ups like before, and I think 90 HP and 93 lbs of torq are pretty impressive for a 96" engine with just a cam, a set of FatCats, air cleaner and a good tune with a SERT.
My bike hauls ***, this winter I'm going to do the 49T ring gear that Evolution sells and I think I'm going to be happy with this combo for quite a while.
I don't think the Harley 103" kit is that impressive for what it costs, it only gets a little more torque than my set up and usually less HP.

No crap! There is only 1 dyno within 500 miles of where I live and the dyno guy thinks he's a GOD and is a bid of a pain in the *** to deal with. Someday I'll take a trip up to Portland and I will make an apointyment with Latus Harley and have them tune it AGAIN.

Some claim Frazier's has a "happy" dyno; but the guy that own's the bike said the numbers are what they are.
He was a repeat customer with this Tech, and was absolutely pleased with the results.
Numbers are simply that: numbers! But the fun factor is what counts........IMO.........

No, it's not my bike.....and yes, it's an '07 FLHX with an SE Stage II 103 BB, 255 cams, .030" Head Gasket and no head work.

The TQ curve on that chart is exactly what I would want if I was doing a 103" BB build. Very nice for an SE 103" BB with no head work!!
