Default 255 vs 254e in a 96"?

I don't want to start a huge debate. But does anyone have any expierence with 254e cams in a bagger? I've read a lot of info about a 255 but not much about a 254e. Trying to figure out which cams to choose for my 11' Road Glide 96".

Bump, Im interested in hearing about them too.

Im between the 255, 254e and 204. Leaning towards the 204 I had them in my 05 Fatboy with a 95ci and they made good power, more mid range than what Ive read about the 255

The 255's are a little more popular because they get sold as pull out cams for a lot cheaper than buying new.

Why stay with a EPA cam.
Why not git a Woods 555 cam. Made just for the 96 threw 110 motor.
Will give you a lot more of what yer lookin for.
Fuelmoto even carries them.
