Ultimate 95"
I am looking to have either a local indy shop I use or another dealership in another city build my 88 to 95 towards the end of the season over the winter. For a memory refresher I have an 05 Super Glide with V&\\;H BSS with quiet baffles \\;which I would like to keep unless it will hamper performance. I have a PCIII with stage 1.
I ride mainly in the city back and forth to work so low end torque is required. However I still have the sport bike desire inside me and would like to have some top end as well.
I guess I want a cam that will open up early yet stay strong all the way through until 6000 rpm's. I am looking to get 100/100 if possible. Ofcourse with a family and kids my budget is LOW. I am going to try to start saving now. What should I be looking for in cams, head work, etc? I am always reading posts and searching on everyones builds but most have switched to the 96 inch motors and I was waiting til I had my bike out of warranty.
Give me some advice. I dont really have a preference into cam manufacturer at this point. HQ, Andrews, Screamin Eagle, or anything is okay at this point. Thanks.

I recommend GMR which is natural because I have their stage II 98 kit but whatever supplier you go with I can't think of a reason why you would not go on up to 98....my guess is that it will not cost any more and in most instances you will get the best of the best parts like pistons, wrist pins, gaskets....so on......my kit with GMR doing it in-house was cheaper than a SE 95 kit by itself...just something to look at.

I did a full SE build with 10:1 compression, flat-top pistons, SE heads, and the SE-251 cam and I'm putting out 103 HP and 106 TQ. Numbers would have been higher if I did 10:5:1 compression, which I may do over the upcoming winter. I'm really please with the build overall.
