Screamin Eagle 254E Cams
I'm interested in the new SE254E and was wondering if anyone has actually fitted these to their bike and their thoughts on them and any Dyno Sheets, i've done a search and there is a little bit on them but seems no one has tried them out as yet,
I've got a 2011 Street Glide 103 ABS security and cruise control have just fitted the SE Fatshotz mufflers a couple of weeks ago and have a Ventilator A/C to fit along with SEPST
Been looking at the Fuelmoto 2-1-2 headpipes to get rid of the cat headpipe and was thinking while headpipe is off why not do a cam upgrade as well because it will happen eventually
I've read people thoughts on them compared to the SE255 and the woods cams options as well, so hoping to hear from someone who has actually tried the SE254E cams
Regards
Big Pete

Havenolife have you fitted these cams or know someone who has, just trying to find someone who has actually experienced these cams, just going by the screamin eagle catalogue they say they're ok for some touring bikes and a good torque cam
this is straight from the SE catalogue
SE -254E C am Kit
This cam provides great low-end torque along with
good midrange. A good “all-around” cam, the SE-254E is a good match for a Dyna, Softail or light T ouring bike
- R oad King®, Street G lide® or R oad G lide® Custom -
when the aggressive rider desires a little more top-end
horsepower. In a 0-60 sprint or 1/4 mile drag race, the
SE-254E-equipped model would pull ahead of an identical
model with a SE-255 cam.

FWIW, when I was contemplating throwing 255's into my 96" I consulted with Doc at Doc's Performance Tuning (Formerly HDMD), who is a great authority on these issues. He recommended that I go with the 254E cam ONLY IF I had to stay with SE cams for warranty purposes. He said they will give same or better all around power with less heat. His top recommendation was the Andrews 26. All of this was based on a stock compression 96" though. Wish I could be of more assistance.

Another thing. I just saw that you have a new bike and I thought knowing my situation might be useful to you. I don't know how it differs in Australia, but here, when I was looking to just change my cams I was told by some dealers that it will void my warranty and was told by others that it won't. This was even while in my initial 60 day post-purchase period, when all upgrades are supposed to be covered. I even called corporate and was told that it is up to the individual dealers to interpret the warranty. That is fine if the dealer that does it will warranty it, but what happens when I break down away from home near a dealer that interprets it differently?
Not telling you this to discourage you from doing it, just making sure you have some more information. I finally decided that I'll stick with my stage 1 until the warranty runs out and then I'll do whatever I want.
