I have the same cams going into my Road King. Having some other work being done as well so prolly won't get it back until mid next week. Can't wait for the wake up call I anticipate when I twist the throttle.

Enjoy the cams. I've been told they work better with bigger engines, which I'm going to rectify this winter. I like them a lot so far. Really woke mine up.

I'm taken mine in next tuesday to have a set of Andrews 54's, and CNC ported heads installed. If I decide later I want the 103 BB done, these cams will work just fine.
