Default High performance cam replacement info needed.

I purchased this beautiful 07 113ci SG with only 9000 miles on the clock.
The previous owner is a Law Enforcement Officer who had the engine built to his specs, go fast.

The bike runs real strong above 4 RPM, at that point it's bait for the State Troopers.

I ride alone and never go past 70 MPH on a good day, licensed as a Mortician I have seen the ugly side of motorcycles accidents.

With the attached specs that the former owner displayed can somebody suggest cam that would provide great bottom and midrange with the arm pulling torque that I am looking for.

The engine is a 113 ci bored and balanced by Roeder HD.
Motor also has timkin upgrade bearing installed & welded..
10.5 compression
625 S&S gear drive cams
Fueling Billet Cam Plate (eliminates flex in cam plate this mod alone is worth about 5 hp)
Fueling lifters
HPI push rods, intake and throttle body 52 mm
Screamin Eagle 110 Heads with Automatic Compression Releases
Updated flashed computer for ACR in heads and motor upgrades
Jims rocker boxes for extra clearance for valve train
Jet Scream intake screen
Arlen ness stage II air cleaner and filter
Thundermax Self Tuner
6 row JAGG oil cooler
Vance and Hines 2 into 1 exhaust
Energy One HP extra plate clutch kit
Throttle Up Stablizer...
Thanks in advance.

Have you picked one of your trusted friends in your line of work for when you add the cam of your choice?

No....

As a former LEO myself and since in the funeral business, I do have flashbacks as what the end result can be.
The cam makes the bike sound awesome, but want useable power.

Give Frank, at Drago's bike works a call. You have very highly built engine. Low/mid range cams that work great on my bike (TMan 555 tq) may not be the correct answer for your needs.

What Frank doesn't know about HD performance hasn't been invented yet. Even better Frank is always willing to spend 20 minutes on the phone explaining the ins and outs. That is why I bought one of his exhausts...

Ya need to figure out the real static compression because those 110 heads have some big chambers. If ya really have 10.5 it will really limit your low end cam choices. Plus there aren't alot/any of gear drive low end choices for a 113. Ya many get away with S&S 570 or Andrews 54? I'd say ya need to change your riding style for that motor or sell/trade it for a stock 103.

Tw 222, 555, 777 or Tman 555 c or torqster. Chose a cam no higher on lift than .585 and over lap no more than 42. You will also want a dyno tune and tuner. You could also do a 30 tooth front pulley and gates 139 tooth belt. At 2000 Rpm's you best be holding on.

07 takes 1 inch rear bearing. If staying gear drive several cams to choose from. 06 was last small bearing.
