Just give in and let it happen. Ha ha.

Another torque cam to consider is an Andrews 26h. I had one in my 96" and got 89 HP and 100 ft-lb. but I now have 120R and of course considering upgrades on that...

It doesn't end. At least not for me.

Best of luck.

Stage II 95" with Andrews 26 gear drive. Great low end torque, very easy starting ( hot or cold,) and a consistent 46 mpg on my '00 RG.

Love 'em.

I've got the 103" Street Glide,did the FuelMoto setup with exhaust, air, tuner and Woods TW-555 cam. The TW-777 is out now, too. I weigh in at 300, add about another 150 when we're two up and last weekend that bike just walked away from my buddy's Stage 1 103" without the cam and he was solo at about 180. Of course, he'll have his installed as soon as he gets it shipped to him now. I am most happy with this cam, it has made a huge difference.

Yeah,I would say that's a midrange cam.That might be a bit to much cam for a stock motor.I would go with the Woods TW-5-6.With the 254's , 43 intake close your bleeding off to much comp.JMHOP!!!! The bike might seem to be a little sluggish.If your going to do head work, & have the heads cc'd to match the cam then I would say do it!!!

With different manufacturers selling heads as well as other cams and whatnot, I wonder what his cost differences might be between getting heads done vs buying new heads. Along the same line of thinking, be it H-D, S&S or whomever, I wonder how much of a benefit buying heads/cams etc. as a package one might see as these items 'might' be fully designed to compliment each other to a potential higher degree than mix-n-match.
What might he expect to pay for a decent job on his heads?

Dealer tells me $1100 for doing the heads. They ship them out to a place in Montreal to do the work. Not sure exactly what's included in this yet.
