S&s 557 (330-0053)
I am thinking of going to the S&S 557 (330-0053) CAMS
http://www.sscycle.com/product/557-E...it-p24006.html
Do any of you have these in your Tri Glide, and what are your thoughts after some miles on them?
I would be going with Quicky push rods, and leaving my setup as is with V&H power duals, and Rush Big Louie 2" exhaust.
Thanks in advance for sharing your experience.

What is the RPM on / off range for them?
I am no expert on this stuff, but talked with S&S about bolt in CAM's and they stated the 330-0053 (557 Cams) were developed specifically for the TG with great low end torque and no sacrifice to the range of riding I described.
I ride up to about 4000 RPM on occasion, normal around 3K but would like to lower that to have CAMs kick in much lower. I ride a lot of hill country and mountain like Smoky Mt, and Bear Tooth out west. I am looking for easier start from dead stop without sacrificing too much on interstate 80+
I am still looking for the true range of the 557 stated RPM on / off.
As for easy start, it was along for the ride, not that I need them.
I appreciate your help and comments.

TTS will not give out the specs of the cam.
Let's just put it this way. If they weren't better than what I had before they would not be in my trike. I can pull away as low as 1500 RPM if I want. I've hit redline at 6200 and they were still pulling. Just say'n.
Read about the others who have installed them. Don't take my word for it. What do they say?

I could not find any info on the TTS-100 cam's except what is in this and other forums. I could not find anything except call TTS.

Thank you for the feed back. So with my Power Vision Tuner, if I go with the TTS-100's is there enough data to get a basic start tune for my setup.
V&H power duals, Rush Big Louie 2" baffle, and Big Sucker AC?
Thanks again....

I have to believe there is someone out there with a PV that has a tune for these, you might check with either Dynojet or Fuelmoto.

Ok between communication with Steve Cole, and DynoJet I have a base tune for my setup with anticipating the TTS-100 CAMs. Now just waiting for TTS to get some inventory and ship. Looks like they are about 2 weeks out.
Thank you all for all of your help. It sounds like I should be exactly where I wanted with the TTS CAMS.
