203 would work pretty well in your bike. It will work better with a little more compression and the bump to 95".


Also consider the Andrews 21.

The SE 203 is a good, mild cam but still EPA Complient so for me you are still leaving a lot of performance behind using this cam.

I like the SE 204 , very strong mid range power, good throughout the RPM range with no flat spots. Does not need more compression to perform..

I had these in my 05 fatboy and 2 of my friends with a RK TC88 and a RG TC 95 are using then with great results

I have the exact same bike (ok maybe a different color) and cams are my winter project as well. I am going with the Andrews 21 cam, (maybe a street port on the heads) and a two into one exhaust system (the current winner is the Vance Pro Pipe). good luck on what ever you decide.

Lots of folks, myself included, are very happy with the Head-Quarters HQ-0034. It's similar to the Andrews 26, S&S 510 and others. I haven't thought about a 95" kit since the HQ's were installed 4 years ago.

You don't mention what you're doing with the cam chain tensioners. A good upgrade is the SE hydraulic cam plate and high volume oil pump; ~$400 or so.

Good luck with your project.
