Hay big guy" I've got the fatbob cvo SE110 and i have been getting a low rpm judder not a miss but like she is running out of fuel as soon as i increase the rpm everything smooths out, i'm also running the 574 fueling reaper cams, is their an overlap issue where it has been said on the Harley network they call it ridding the cams where these cams may not be suited for very low rpm but i don't believe these cams are that radical, the bike doesn't stall and sounds sweet idling; can i get your professional opinion. "Thanks and be safe!
@@Sam590ss I have the pcv with the custom map specifically set for 574 cams, it only happens at very low rpms that's why I'm thinking it's not in the power range for these cams and there aren't any inlet/outlet overlap with these cams "thanks and be safe!
Did a cam swap over the winter in my 05 ultra classic. 88" Went with the Andrews 26 cams. Really like them. Good low end power and the carry the power through to redline if you want to rev that high. Also put in the Sceemin Eagle cam plate and HV oil pump. HIGHLY recommend this upgrade. Motor is a lot quieter due to the increase in oil pressure and volume. Power commander V was also added to take care of the tuning. I have a video on my page if you want to hear what it sounds like after the upgrades. Thanks for posting this Gixxer!
A cam shapes power. So it's up to the rider as you stated to match it to what, where, and how they ride. It's also important to speak with your tuner and make sure your other components will work well with your exhaust etc. Great job on another vid and have a great safe weekend of riding.
That Redshift 575 that you were describing as high torque..its Dyno looked like a mid range cam only (very poor low end torque) ..On my m8, 107, I went with the Screamin Eagle 447 torque cam and Power vision tuner, and no plans to go above stage 2, Cam cost me $100 (used, but no or very low mileage). It seemed to be very easy to tune, and I can't be any happier with the results.. and I think its the easiest on the valve springs, and only lost about avg 1 mile per gallon for the huge torque/power gains (about 45mpg now)
I have to say I am learning so much from your vids about my TC 88. My confidence is soring about my recent purchase of my 2002 heritage and where I want to go with it. Thanks again for the vids.
Gotta give you an "Atta boy!" on this video. I took your advice and gave my cam choice a lot of thought. 07 FLHTCU with stage 1 parts. Oil pump was failing so I took the opportunity to repair/rebuild/replace most of my bottom end parts. I did my homework and picked the S&S 551 cams along with the TC-3 plate and pump (along with other valve train parts and primary parts). The cam does exactly what I need it to do. Went from 29mpg on factory cams to 36mpg (80mph on the interstate. Don't judge. That's my 1hr work commute each way.) 47mpg on the back roads at posted.
(2000 V Twin touring model) I run that Big bore kit with the 509 s&s gear cams, and I just picked up the bike last Friday from HD in Beaumont Tx. who did the install on my s&s cam plate and oil pump. (For convenience) I went with the screaming eagle pushrods and lifters. I also had them replace every bearing and seal they could while they were in there.
@@GixxerFoo it had the big bore in it when I purchased it 8 / 10 years ago. So I'm not sure. But I can tell you that it'll walk off and leave a stock Milwaukee eight 107
Just recently put s&s 583 cams in my 15 softail slim after watching it vids. With a stage 1 already done. Great low end torque great power. The bike explodes @ 60 mph. Sounds like a fire breathing dragon. No more mods plenty of power. Thank you gixerfoo!!!
Thinking about putting them 222s in my 07 street bob, Im wanting to get better at wheelies, already have 2 to 1 bassani, chain conversion, 13” legends and I have screaming eagles 255s cams already installed but they already hitting hitting .
After watching quite a few of your vids and knowing how far I plan to go with my TC88. I have no intentions of adding displacement. I typically ride 2up and rarely go above 5000 rpm, so I feel the S&S 509 is the way to go.
Adding a cam to a 88 is a huge torque increase, the 88 doesn't make huge horsepower but it does make torque. 509 in a 88 is a excellent choice for two up riding!
Video suggestion: Should you keep your sporty, both 883 or 1200, or should you “upgrade” to a big twin, soft tail? Pros and cons of boring out your sporty vs just getting a bigger displacement bike?
Watched your review on the TW-222 and wacked it in my 2014 road king and absolutely love it. Well done and thanks for your opinion mate. Regards Craig from OZ
Also did a swap on catless headers, big suckers air intake and a power commander V with a map to suit and wow! The girl is alive now! Pulls like a train! Still have the clutch HD spring to go. Best regards Craig OZ
I may go big bore a season or two from now. The jugs are chrome and I don't care much for that. I like them blacked out . A set of cams that would accommodate the 96 and maybe be beneficial to 103. I am not all that interested in top speeds its more low/mids for me and something that would help me wheelie easier
The lift of the cam isn’t near as important a factor in cam choice as the duration and intake valve closing time. A higher duration with a later closing time will lower the dynamic compression. S&S has a few videos that explain everything in great detail.
I ride my fatbob mainly between 2.5k and 4k rpms. So i want an Andrews 48H, but i also want ape hangars, new tyres, a new exhaust, a new digital speedo, new suspension.
Can you do an updated twin cam drop in cam comparison. Include some of the less popular cams such as TMan 555torqster, cr 570-2, star racing, along with fueling reaper, woods, s&s, etc.
I really appreciate your videos. I was hoping you would say something on the feeling camshafts as well. Right now I'm in the process of picking a cam and I'm a heavy fella that rides my wife often so I need to choose wisely. I was thinking the Andrews ev27 or evi 23 but I've been hearing a lot about feeling reaper 518. Any input would be appreciated.
Here's my 2 cents for Sportster s it's pretty hard to beat Andrews N4 cams likewise for Evo motors EV27 I can't even count how many happy customers with those 2 cams ! For twincams average guy on the street can't go wrong with the Andrews 37 ! The 585 S & S is a great cam for all TC motors ! Remember 88 to 95 require more compression for 585 & no higher than 10 to 1 for 103 & bigger for the 585 ! Also not sure if your aware but the factory valve springs ( beehive style ) can be used safely for about 580 lift cams ! There you have it my 2 cents !
@@parkeslife4323 the 96 would require high compression also but that would be a waste that motor should be bored to 103 as long as your adding compression !
Leonard Stanford thanks. So in a cam swap only situation your best bang for buck recommendation on a stock 96 Softail is what? Already running 2:2 pipes and high flow filter. Single seater. Looking for more mid range. Baggers aren't really a massive thing here in Australia yet. But cost of motor work and parts is.
@@parkeslife4323 Listen to Leonard. If you keep your 96” stock compression go with the 37h if you add compression & or go to 103 I would go with the Andrews 57 H. You will see a lot of fancy names & advertising for some cams. Andrews doesn’t because they don’t have to

With the 110 you would probably really like Wood Tw222. That cam has all the bottom, mid and top end you could ask for and they perform very very well in the 110.
Woods 222 in a 103..runs fantastic. Question-the subtle intake clack when light throttle is applied ( guessing butterfly ) is it a side effect? Remedy or own it?.. great vids.bless n carry on
Jon Gray I have 57h cams it does the same thing. It’s the throttle blade. Drove me nuts figuring out where it was coming from. I thought I adjusted the push rods wrong 🤦♂️
@@scrumthebum2451 thanks.. yeah tore mine back down and reset the pushrods twice looking for that noise..kind of a soft clack only on a soft throttle roll...ride on...thanks for the reply
@@jongray9342 I did same thing, tighten p-rods 3flats each no difference. Mine actually does it at idle till about 1800rpm. The only solution is to buy a HPI, or S&S throttle body
I had that intake clack with my TW222. I got rid of it when I put a Rinehart Intake, V&H Twin Slash Duals, and ran a different MAP with my FP3. The pipes and intake made the difference, and the tune. I had the V&H headers on with both, but I just had a stock intake with a K&N filter.
FXBB 2019 Street Bob, just had a S&S 475G installed into my stage 1, heavy SE breather and V&H pro pipe exhaust. Holy hell....... never had I thought a stage 2 upgrade would make such a difference. Totally 100% improvement in sound and performance. Highly recommended.
Perfect timing for this video. I'm thinking about putting a cam in my twin cam 88. Not sure if I wanna do a gear conversion or not. I'm a solo rider usually in low rpms
Yea I like the woods to but from what I understand is Andrews has been making r cutting the woods cams but to me the woods makes better power than any but Andrew sounds better than any but every bike is going to respond little different think a lot is more to do with the tuner
"Pay attention to the RPM's" that means I'll have to install a tachometer. I did install an oil pressure gauge over the winter, and the pressure is good until it warms up, it then drops below 10 at a light. (96ci Dyna)
@@GixxerFoo I prefer an analog as well. Does the analog use the same kind of connections as your digital or are you not sure yet? (I don't mean mounting)
The guy that did my cam swap suggested a s&s 585 took out a SE270 .... the 270 was a lot more fun at high rpm... the 585 cams are just not doing it for me but I guess I'm stuck with it 88 to 95 cbi
Great vid . Got me a 1999 80 in Fatboy .Andrews 13 in it now keith Black 9:6.1 pistons SS cyl heads.4 Hi ign. Single fire coil Feuling lifters ,SS adj rods. Looking to go with Reaper 574 cam.Ride 2 up almost all the time. Lots of mountain roads. then Pa to Tenn. an back now an again. What ya think. Smaller cam ? or ?
That's not a bad cam and it sounds like you have the motor work to support it, but that cam comes on a bit later than what you might want for where and how you ride. With the engine prep you have that cam comes on about 2500, you might be interested in something that comes on a bit earlier riding two up in the mountains.
@@Manis-World yeah, guess the guy at this shop doesn't really get it.... sucks I dropped too much money to get anything re done I'm stuck with what I got
Man I'm learning a lot watching your channel but I'm not a mechanic. Be cool if you did build consultations for a fee. I got a 2003 Roadking just picked up so Twin Cam 88 Carbureted. Last owner put what looks like a full set of Vance Hines on it not sure about anything else being that it's got the stock air cleaner on it. I'm looking at wanting to add more power, just not enough torque when the wife rides with me. What's the best bang for the buck for around $2500-$3000 range? Remember I got to pay someone else to do it.
You can add a bolt in cam to it, that's the absolute best bang for the buck when it comes to horsepower and torque. If you want to get a little deeper a 95 inch kit will really wake it up. Here's a video on the bolt in cams on an 88 ua-cam.com/video/tV5LcDXx3xA/v-deo.html.
Check out Fuelmoto’s website. They have tons of dyno charts with just about every combo you can think of. Especially stage 1 103 It’s very informative but as we all know cams are the hardest single choice to make
Lots of good info. The M114 runs 10.5:1 stock. Boosting it too 11.5:1 should not be an issue but stronger valve springs still are a good idea. My question would be torque. If you add say 20% more will that cause the clutch to slip ? I have not found any documentation what the stock clutch and plate can handle
It wouldn't be a bad idea to add the heavy duty clutch spring with a jump in compression that high. M8 will will respond very sell to increased compression.
Hey Gixx, I noticed that you didn't ask " how much does your wife weigh?" Smart man, ha ha just kidding honey. I don't want to wake up with a pillow over my face.
I would like to know what kind of Cam system or what can I do to my 88 I've got a 2003 100th anniversary Electra glide ultra classic and I would like to build it for more power to where it would burn the back wheels pull the front end up what should I do to it
You can for sure upgrade the cam plate and put some performance cams in, match it with a big bore and a mild compression increase. 95 kits with the 4 inch stroke are the hot setup on those 88's.
Lifters can get stupid expensive, but I really like the Jim's or S&S. They have more and larger needle bearings than stock, pump up faster and they are really insurance running an aftermarket cam. Stock lifters are normally fine but I like the extra insurance.
What??? Holy crap what's the deal with that?! I would or ordered the bearing online and brought it to them. Just cause their supplier can't get it doesn't mean it's not out there.
@@GixxerFoo many thanks ; my 103 cvo has the most lift possible on early 88” engine valve stems . The s&s 510 has less lift but more duration and overlap . More overlap gets you that great cam sound cackle . Be aware when adding more lift ; valve seal may go out because of lift pushing stem down farther into dirty upper stem area . ✊👍🏻👌🙏🏻👋🏻
It's no secret that it's smart to buy a 2nd hand bike with all the mods you already want or don't want, on the bike. Stock exhaust and stock cam on any M8 when you already have 4 valve heads and fuel injection, is plenty. Especially if you're on a Cruiser. No need to roast tires, grow up and act your age, not your shoe size.
Hey just wanted to ask. I did a 95 ci big bore with screaming eagle cam can't remember the numbers had some head wrk done also what would you suggest I go up to for better performance. Really appreciate your time. Love the channel. I'm a Subscriber
If it's mostly stock with just the 95 upgrade and a SE cam, replacing the SE cam with a bolt in aftermarket cam will make that bike a whole new animal. The Wood W6 is one of the most powerful bolt ins out there for that motor.
New heritage's just don't do it for me....my 2017 has Stage one with a FP 3..... Best bolt in...versus... Kit..(cam plate, pump etc ) I really should keep my money.... Tw 222....looks good Pile on with opinions
Watching your vids. Got a “new” 2000 Heritage classic. Only want bottom end. Not gonna increase displacement and keep my mpg. SS 509 or TW Knights 6(?) ??
Great video as usual. I wonder if I made the wrong cam choice for my 2010 Street glide 106 stage 2 head work build. Fuelling techs swayed me towards their 543 cam over their 525 cam for example saying I wouldn't be losing noticable low end by going with the 543 but gain some in the middle rpm range. I don't have the bike back yet but I guess will see... Any experience with the 543 cam?
I'll have some M8 videos coming soon! Everyone's been under warranty for so long with the M8's and using SE cams. I'll check in on those M8 cams, finally getting more demand for M8 aftermarket cams now.
What are your thoughts on SE 255 in a 2008 road king with SE air breather and true dual Rinehart. I'm looking for low to mid. Thanks and excellent content on your channel.
Thank you, I appreciate your support! The SE cams are decent, they are easy on the valve train but they are designed to be compliant with emissions. It's produce a nice little bump over stock but you will get way more out of an aftermarket cam. I have some videos on cams for the 96 right here ua-cam.com/video/0Ncrl2OWCwk/v-deo.html.
Awesome video, favor to ask as I need some guidance on what cams to buy. I have a 2003 Sportster 1200 custom with 5k miles, full Vance and Hines exhaust, kuryakyn high flow exhaust, ride alone and mainly just cruise. Once and a while I do full throttle bit rarely. Only want power when I need it. I do not plan on upgrading anything and just want a few extra horsepower. Any suggestions on what cams to buy?
@@GixxerFoo awesome, those are the ones I was looking at. One more question if you don’t mind! With the setup I have right now, carburetor is set at 48 idle jet, 185 main jet and set at 1 3/4 turns on mixture screw and 3 shims with n needle. What do you think the new carburetor set up should be with the Andrews N4 cams?
2018 sportster 48 with stage 1 already done. What cam’s would you recommend if I plan on getting big bore kit later on and also what cam’s would you recommend if I don’t plan on getting a big bore later? Don’t do a lot of 2 up riding or carry a lot of luggage.
Either the Hammer 560 or 570. Can't go wrong with those. 570 is you don't plan on getting a big bore kit. If you plan on getting a big bore kit and keeping the stock compression 570 is perfect. 560 with increased compression and a big bore kit. 560 will bolt in without the big bore kit but you will lose low end torque and power. It will however explode in the upper mid range and take off, you will feel when it takes over!
I purchased a 2012 road king classic 3 months ago in perfect condition 15,000 miles on it. I ordered a Roland Sands turbine air cleaner, Vance and Hines power duals with Tab Performance Bam sticks with the Zombie baffles from a local Harley Davidson Dealership, I've have been watching your videos and currently thinking about the Wood's 222 cam upgrade, do you think it would be advantageous to go ahead and do a cam plate and oil pump upgrade since they will have everything pulled out anyway? Will this save money by doing all of this at once?
You'll save some money only having to tear the bike down once, I always say it's time do it while your there. Especially if your paying labor to get the work done. It's just good piece of mind to upgrade to some stouter components while you're in there.
I just bought a 2014 SG with 103. I'm totally rebuilding the bike. I'm wanting to do the 110 big bore kit w/10.5:1 compression and ported heads with 58mm throttle body and 5.3 injectors. I'm thinking about using the woods 777 cams. What's your opinion on that setup. Wanting low end torque
Gday there . I’m buying a 2021 Low Rider S with the 114 . And I am looking at putting a Redshift 468 Cam in it with a Stage 2 kit. Is this a good Cam for my bike ? And should I buy a heavy breather air filter to lift the performance ? Cheers 🍻 Gus
A good high flow air cleaner is a must, what exhaust system are you planning on? That's an awesome cam for the M8, that will turn that 114 into an animal. The power comes on early and it works great with the factory 4 valve heads!
I'm looking at a cam change,oil pump and other things this winter what do you suggest on a 2010 road glide I want that old school thumper sound bike has a stage 1 now
The Wood TW-222 is a great cam for the touring line, plenty of low end and mid range without sacrificing top end. Wood cams have some great chop at idle too. Here's a video on the cams, I am assuming you have a 96 being a 2010 ua-cam.com/video/0Ncrl2OWCwk/v-deo.html.

Sounds like a tuning issue, what tuner are you running? You might try some auto tune session if your running a FP3 or Power Vision, or take it to your dyno tuner if you got it tuned on the dyno.
@@GixxerFoo I'm using PCV with the preset tune for 574 reaper cams, could it possibly be a dirty fuel filter? Mabey rpm too low of speed for the cams overlap?
Thinking installing the S&S MR103 cam? I was going to install it but was advised against it by my engine builder as he said it’s too soft of a cam when comparing to the SE211 cam. Is it responsive low to mid? When does it die off and how does it feel? Do you have any feedback on the MR103 ? Thanks
Depends what year of bike and the displacement you have, I wouldn't go with the SE cams as they can be disappointing compared to the aftermarket cams. The MR103 is supposed to be a all around cam, low to mid with some top end but a better option for a all around is a Wood 222.

It seemed to be very easy to tune, and I can't be any happier with the results.. and I think its the easiest on the valve springs, and only lost about avg 1 mile per gallon for the huge torque/power gains (about 45mpg now)
I have to say I am learning so much from your vids about my TC 88. My confidence is soring about my recent purchase of my 2002 heritage and where I want to go with it. Thanks again for the vids.
Great to hear! There's a lot that can be done with those motors!
Gotta give you an "Atta boy!" on this video. I took your advice and gave my cam choice a lot of thought. 07 FLHTCU with stage 1 parts. Oil pump was failing so I took the opportunity to repair/rebuild/replace most of my bottom end parts. I did my homework and picked the S&S 551 cams along with the TC-3 plate and pump (along with other valve train parts and primary parts). The cam does exactly what I need it to do. Went from 29mpg on factory cams to 36mpg (80mph on the interstate. Don't judge. That's my 1hr work commute each way.) 47mpg on the back roads at posted.
Thank you, that is awesome to hear you got that bike doing exactly what you wanted!
(2000 V Twin touring model)
I run that Big bore kit with the 509 s&s gear cams, and I just picked up the bike last Friday from HD in Beaumont Tx. who did the install on my s&s cam plate and oil pump. (For convenience) I went with the screaming eagle pushrods and lifters. I also had them replace every bearing and seal they could while they were in there.
Getting those seals replaced is just plain good insurance! How big of a bore did you end up going with?
@@GixxerFoo it had the big bore in it when I purchased it 8 / 10 years ago. So I'm not sure. But I can tell you that it'll walk off and leave a stock Milwaukee eight 107
Just recently put s&s 583 cams in my 15 softail slim after watching it vids. With a stage 1 already done. Great low end torque great power. The bike explodes @ 60 mph. Sounds like a fire breathing dragon. No more mods plenty of power. Thank you gixerfoo!!!
Plenty of power..........For now lol.
Nice!! Awesome to hear it made some big improvements for you!
Lol it's never enough!
@@fatso8974 yeh haha
Put 222 in my late model dyna and love it
Wood makes some killer cams!
Thinking about putting them 222s in my 07 street bob, Im wanting to get better at wheelies, already have 2 to 1 bassani, chain conversion, 13” legends and I have screaming eagles 255s cams already installed but they already hitting hitting .
After watching quite a few of your vids and knowing how far I plan to go with my TC88. I have no intentions of adding displacement. I typically ride 2up and rarely go above 5000 rpm, so I feel the S&S 509 is the way to go.
Adding a cam to a 88 is a huge torque increase, the 88 doesn't make huge horsepower but it does make torque. 509 in a 88 is a excellent choice for two up riding!
Keep your awesome videos coming on performance! Great information!
Thanks! Will do!
Thanks gixxer , all good info. I put a 509G in my 05 Fatboy. It turned out well.
Nice work!
Video suggestion: Should you keep your sporty, both 883 or 1200, or should you “upgrade” to a big twin, soft tail? Pros and cons of boring out your sporty vs just getting a bigger displacement bike?
Not a bad idea, there's a lot to consider there!
Watched your review on the TW-222 and wacked it in my 2014 road king and absolutely love it. Well done and thanks for your opinion mate. Regards Craig from OZ
Thank you! That's awesome to hear! Wood makes an awesome cam and it's Andrews quality since they bring them to Bob Wood specs.
Also did a swap on catless headers, big suckers air intake and a power commander V with a map to suit and wow! The girl is alive now! Pulls like a train! Still have the clutch HD spring to go. Best regards Craig OZ
I may go big bore a season or two from now. The jugs are chrome and I don't care much for that. I like them blacked out . A set of cams that would accommodate the 96 and maybe be beneficial to 103. I am not all that interested in top speeds its more low/mids for me and something that would help me wheelie easier
The lift of the cam isn’t near as important a factor in cam choice as the duration and intake valve closing time. A higher duration with a later closing time will lower the dynamic compression. S&S has a few videos that explain everything in great detail.
I ride my fatbob mainly between 2.5k and 4k rpms. So i want an Andrews 48H, but i also want ape hangars, new tyres, a new exhaust, a new digital speedo, new suspension.
Andrews makes some awesome cams, they grind cams for most companies out there too. Fat Bob is one of my favorite bikes!
Can you do an updated twin cam drop in cam comparison. Include some of the less popular cams such as TMan 555torqster, cr 570-2, star racing, along with fueling reaper, woods, s&s, etc.
I really appreciate your videos. I was hoping you would say something on the feeling camshafts as well. Right now I'm in the process of picking a cam and I'm a heavy fella that rides my wife often so I need to choose wisely. I was thinking the Andrews ev27 or evi 23 but I've been hearing a lot about feeling reaper 518. Any input would be appreciated.
Very helpful. I am thinking I may do one soon!
Woods 222 on my fatboy 103. Perfect
That's one of the best all around cams out there!
My FLHTK weighs 950 lbs. I put in a torque cam because I want the power down low where it’s useable. Bobby Wood TW222 for my 103 TC.
Here's my 2 cents for Sportster s it's pretty hard to beat Andrews N4 cams likewise for Evo motors EV27 I can't even count how many happy customers with those 2 cams ! For twincams average guy on the street can't go wrong with the Andrews 37 ! The 585 S & S is a great cam for all TC motors ! Remember 88 to 95 require more compression for 585 & no higher than 10 to 1 for 103 & bigger for the 585 ! Also not sure if your aware but the factory valve springs ( beehive style ) can be used safely for about 580 lift cams ! There you have it my 2 cents !
What about the 583 in a stock 96 Softail?
@@parkeslife4323 the 96 would require high compression also but that would be a waste that motor should be bored to 103 as long as your adding compression !
Leonard Stanford thanks. So in a cam swap only situation your best bang for buck recommendation on a stock 96 Softail is what? Already running 2:2 pipes and high flow filter. Single seater. Looking for more mid range. Baggers aren't really a massive thing here in Australia yet. But cost of motor work and parts is.
@@parkeslife4323 Andrews 37 is a good cam .that would be my choice !
@@parkeslife4323
Listen to Leonard. If you keep your 96” stock compression go with the 37h if you add compression & or go to 103 I would go with the Andrews 57 H. You will see a lot of fancy names & advertising for some cams. Andrews doesn’t because they don’t have to
Yep I have to change the rear tire !

I had that intake clack with my TW222. I got rid of it when I put a Rinehart Intake, V&H Twin Slash Duals, and ran a different MAP with my FP3. The pipes and intake made the difference, and the tune. I had the V&H headers on with both, but I just had a stock intake with a K&N filter.
As always, great info. Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Super legit, I have a Fatboy (Softail) and I live in the mid to high rpm range so yeah touring cams are a hard pass for me
FXBB 2019 Street Bob, just had a S&S 475G installed into my stage 1, heavy SE breather and V&H pro pipe exhaust. Holy hell....... never had I thought a stage 2 upgrade would make such a difference. Totally 100% improvement in sound and performance. Highly recommended.
Yeah wouldn't like a high torque cam that runs out early!
I have a touring bike and I like those mid to highs as well.
New to you Channel. And I have to say really nice video with a lot of information. Also because 9f your video I bought myself a fxdb 2007
Thank you for watching! That's awesome to hear, that's a nice bike! How long have you had it?
Also dont forget good lifters and pushrods and a hogh flow air cleaner and a good header and tuner

Thank you!
Good info again!!! Thank you
Anytime!
Great video man! thanks
Glad you liked it!
Perfect timing for this video. I'm thinking about putting a cam in my twin cam 88. Not sure if I wanna do a gear conversion or not. I'm a solo rider usually in low rpms
take from a twin cam 88 owner since 05. get rid of them cam chain tensioner ASAP. they will kill your motor.
I would suggest you upgrade your compensator to a Dark Horse unit as well. Good luck with your decision.
big bore kit is a nice upgrade for a 88.
@@seekerofthenarrowgate8716 that’s 96 twin cam
Yea I like the woods to but from what I understand is Andrews has been making r cutting the woods cams but to me the woods makes better power than any but Andrew sounds better than any but every bike is going to respond little different think a lot is more to do with the tuner
I think you mentioned Woods 555 in 1 of your videos. I'm considering that but still not sure
"Pay attention to the RPM's" that means I'll have to install a tachometer.
I did install an oil pressure gauge over the winter, and the pressure is good until it warms up, it then drops below 10 at a light. (96ci Dyna)
You can also judge it by your riding style, if you short shift or run it out pretty hard.
@@GixxerFoo I do both, so I need to install a tac.
I like the idea of having all the gauges so I can keep an eye on how the vehicle is running anyway.
@@readtheinstructions1407 I personally like having a tach myself too. I need to get a analog tach, I have a small digital but I prefer analog.
@@GixxerFoo I prefer an analog as well.
Does the analog use the same kind of connections as your digital or are you not sure yet? (I don't mean mounting)
Whatnuear is your bike? If you get the Harley tach or one specific for the bike it will plug right in.
Instead of building your engine and stages by your parts and stages stack them all up and then do the whole motor at once
I have to agree, that's the best way to do it. It's hard to be patient though staring at a pile of parts waiting to get it all together lol.
@@GixxerFoo for real
The guy that did my cam swap suggested a s&s 585 took out a SE270 .... the 270 was a lot more fun at high rpm... the 585 cams are just not doing it for me but I guess I'm stuck with it 88 to 95 cbi
Try a thinner head gasket or deck heads while getting headwork.. this will raise compression and bring the 585s to life.
Need 10.5-11.1 comp
Exactly, bump the compression and the party is on!
Do you plan on doing a Cam video on the 117?
Great vid . Got me a 1999 80 in Fatboy .Andrews 13 in it now keith Black 9:6.1 pistons SS cyl heads.4 Hi ign. Single fire coil Feuling lifters ,SS adj rods. Looking to go with Reaper 574 cam.Ride 2 up almost all the time. Lots of mountain roads. then Pa to Tenn. an back now an again. What ya think. Smaller cam ? or ?
That's not a bad cam and it sounds like you have the motor work to support it, but that cam comes on a bit later than what you might want for where and how you ride. With the engine prep you have that cam comes on about 2500, you might be interested in something that comes on a bit earlier riding two up in the mountains.
Thank you sir

Great video as usual brother. S&S 585s suit my riding style just right.. lol
That's what I have am I'm not a fan...

And to have everyday to ride
Man I'm learning a lot watching your channel but I'm not a mechanic. Be cool if you did build consultations for a fee.
I got a 2003 Roadking just picked up so Twin Cam 88 Carbureted. Last owner put what looks like a full set of Vance Hines on it not sure about anything else being that it's got the stock air cleaner on it. I'm looking at wanting to add more power, just not enough torque when the wife rides with me. What's the best bang for the buck for around $2500-$3000 range? Remember I got to pay someone else to do it.
You can add a bolt in cam to it, that's the absolute best bang for the buck when it comes to horsepower and torque. If you want to get a little deeper a 95 inch kit will really wake it up. Here's a video on the bolt in cams on an 88 ua-cam.com/video/tV5LcDXx3xA/v-deo.html.
Check out Fuelmoto’s website. They have tons of dyno charts with just about every combo you can think of. Especially stage 1 103 It’s very informative but as we all know cams are the hardest single choice to make
FuelMoto has done some awesome extensive testing and research. Hard to beat buying a engine package from them, it's tested and proven.
You need to make a build series. Maybe get a older dyna and just build your vision. Come on foo!! Expand your horizon ese
Funny you mentioned that, lol it's in the works!
Lots of good info. The M114 runs 10.5:1 stock. Boosting it too 11.5:1 should not be an issue but stronger valve springs still are a good idea.
My question would be torque. If you add say 20% more will that cause the clutch to slip ? I have not found any documentation what the stock clutch and plate can handle
It wouldn't be a bad idea to add the heavy duty clutch spring with a jump in compression that high. M8 will will respond very sell to increased compression.
Hey Gixx, I noticed that you didn't ask " how much does your wife weigh?" Smart man, ha ha just kidding honey. I don't want to wake up with a pillow over my face.
I would like to know what kind of Cam system or what can I do to my 88 I've got a 2003 100th anniversary Electra glide ultra classic and I would like to build it for more power to where it would burn the back wheels pull the front end up what should I do to it
You can for sure upgrade the cam plate and put some performance cams in, match it with a big bore and a mild compression increase. 95 kits with the 4 inch stroke are the hot setup on those 88's.
Thanks man
Anytime!
Super off topic lol!!! What do you think is the best lifters while doing new tw222 cam for 96ci
Lifters can get stupid expensive, but I really like the Jim's or S&S. They have more and larger needle bearings than stock, pump up faster and they are really insurance running an aftermarket cam. Stock lifters are normally fine but I like the extra insurance.
took my bike in for my engine rebuild 2-3-2021, today is 5-7-2021. I'm still waiting😂. parts are difficult, timkein crank bearings, is the holdup
What??? Holy crap what's the deal with that?! I would or ordered the bearing online and brought it to them. Just cause their supplier can't get it doesn't mean it's not out there.
@@GixxerFoo me bad, it was timkein sleeve inserts for the timkein bearings holding the S&S balanced crank
Yeah that could be an issue, can't just get those anywhere.

Get rid of stock epa cam immediately !!!-
Even the Screamin Eagle cams are EPA cams, aftermarket is the way to go!
@@GixxerFoo yup !!! -
@@GixxerFoo even cvo cams ???
CVO came are even centered around meeting emissions. The CVO mufflers are Screamin Eagle street legal high flow style.
@@GixxerFoo many thanks ; my 103 cvo has the most lift possible on early 88” engine valve stems . The s&s 510 has less lift but more duration and overlap . More overlap gets you that great cam sound cackle . Be aware when adding more lift ; valve seal may go out because of lift pushing stem down farther into dirty upper stem area . ✊👍🏻👌🙏🏻👋🏻
It's no secret that it's smart to buy a 2nd hand bike with all the mods you already want or don't want, on the bike. Stock exhaust and stock cam on any M8 when you already have 4 valve heads and fuel injection, is plenty. Especially if you're on a Cruiser. No need to roast tires, grow up and act your age, not your shoe size.
Hey just wanted to ask. I did a 95 ci big bore with screaming eagle cam can't remember the numbers had some head wrk done also what would you suggest I go up to for better performance. Really appreciate your time. Love the channel. I'm a Subscriber
If it's mostly stock with just the 95 upgrade and a SE cam, replacing the SE cam with a bolt in aftermarket cam will make that bike a whole new animal. The Wood W6 is one of the most powerful bolt ins out there for that motor.
Put it on the dyno to get every hp you paid for !
That's the best way to get it dialed in perfectly!
New heritage's just don't do it for me....my 2017 has Stage one with a FP 3.....
Best bolt in...versus... Kit..(cam plate, pump etc )
I really should keep my money....
Tw 222....looks good
Pile on with opinions
222 is one of the best bolt in cams out there in my opinion, I personally like the twin cam models better than the new M8 counterparts.
Watching your vids. Got a “new” 2000 Heritage classic. Only want bottom end. Not gonna increase displacement and keep my mpg. SS 509 or TW Knights 6(?) ??
Great video as usual.
I wonder if I made the wrong cam choice for my 2010 Street glide 106 stage 2 head work build.
Fuelling techs swayed me towards their 543 cam over their 525 cam for example saying I wouldn't be losing noticable low end by going with the 543 but gain some in the middle rpm range. I don't have the bike back yet but I guess will see... Any experience with the 543 cam?
With your head work the 543 was the way to go!
I do rev my bikes out ... i'm not a guy who shifts too quick. but I don't hold it until it screams
Need a cam for when my warranty on my 131” is done. Suggestions? Oh, also have to wait until somebody makes a tuner that works on RDRS equipped bikes.
I'll have some M8 videos coming soon! Everyone's been under warranty for so long with the M8's and using SE cams. I'll check in on those M8 cams, finally getting more demand for M8 aftermarket cams now.
@@GixxerFoo looking forward to it.
What are your thoughts on SE 255 in a 2008 road king with SE air breather and true dual Rinehart. I'm looking for low to mid. Thanks and excellent content on your channel.
Thank you, I appreciate your support! The SE cams are decent, they are easy on the valve train but they are designed to be compliant with emissions. It's produce a nice little bump over stock but you will get way more out of an aftermarket cam. I have some videos on cams for the 96 right here ua-cam.com/video/0Ncrl2OWCwk/v-deo.html.
Awesome video, favor to ask as I need some guidance on what cams to buy. I have a 2003 Sportster 1200 custom with 5k miles, full Vance and Hines exhaust, kuryakyn high flow exhaust, ride alone and mainly just cruise. Once and a while I do full throttle bit rarely. Only want power when I need it. I do not plan on upgrading anything and just want a few extra horsepower. Any suggestions on what cams to buy?
For a 2003 model the Andrews N4 are very hard to beat!
@@GixxerFoo awesome, those are the ones I was looking at. One more question if you don’t mind! With the setup I have right now, carburetor is set at 48 idle jet, 185 main jet and set at 1 3/4 turns on mixture screw and 3 shims with n needle. What do you think the new carburetor set up should be with the Andrews N4 cams?
2018 sportster 48 with stage 1 already done. What cam’s would you recommend if I plan on getting big bore kit later on and also what cam’s would you recommend if I don’t plan on getting a big bore later? Don’t do a lot of 2 up riding or carry a lot of luggage.
Same question with a 883
Hammer Performance has some nice cams for Sportsters, wanna get thier 570 after warranty is up on the bike.
hammerperf.com/xlvalvetrain.shtml
@@MrJruta Talk to Hammer Performance. The Sportster Gods. Their website has every answer you need
Either the Hammer 560 or 570. Can't go wrong with those. 570 is you don't plan on getting a big bore kit. If you plan on getting a big bore kit and keeping the stock compression 570 is perfect. 560 with increased compression and a big bore kit. 560 will bolt in without the big bore kit but you will lose low end torque and power. It will however explode in the upper mid range and take off, you will feel when it takes over!
I purchased a 2012 road king classic 3 months ago in perfect condition 15,000 miles on it. I ordered a Roland Sands turbine air cleaner, Vance and Hines power duals with Tab Performance Bam sticks with the Zombie baffles from a local Harley Davidson Dealership, I've have been watching your videos and currently thinking about the Wood's 222 cam upgrade, do you think it would be advantageous to go ahead and do a cam plate and oil pump upgrade since they will have everything pulled out anyway? Will this save money by doing all of this at once?
You'll save some money only having to tear the bike down once, I always say it's time do it while your there. Especially if your paying labor to get the work done. It's just good piece of mind to upgrade to some stouter components while you're in there.
I got fed up with the COST of HD parts (if even available after 7 years) so I went to Japanese products. I like it better.

Cheers 🍻 Gus
A good high flow air cleaner is a must, what exhaust system are you planning on? That's an awesome cam for the M8, that will turn that 114 into an animal. The power comes on early and it works great with the factory 4 valve heads!

"Thanks and be safe!
Talk to your tuner, or find someone else.
Sounds like a tuning issue, what tuner are you running? You might try some auto tune session if your running a FP3 or Power Vision, or take it to your dyno tuner if you got it tuned on the dyno.
@@GixxerFoo I'm using PCV with the preset tune for 574 reaper cams, could it possibly be a dirty fuel filter? Mabey rpm too low of speed for the cams overlap?

The 110 with good compression and cams will really impress! I like the 110, it's a great route to go and you're using a the right set of cams!
I have a 2010 Fat bob 96" stock engine very confusing for a bolt on. I was looking at a TW 7h ?

Depends what year of bike and the displacement you have, I wouldn't go with the SE cams as they can be disappointing compared to the aftermarket cams. The MR103 is supposed to be a all around cam, low to mid with some top end but a better option for a all around is a Wood 222.

S&S MR103 cam beats most cams all the way around. I love the reaper 574 idle but the low end dip has me questioning it. The MR103 even beats it on top but doesn’t have the sick idle. Ahhhhh cams.... the toughest single choice for us
Feuling 574 and S&S MR103 are excellent choices, another good one is the Wood TW-222. The Wood cam gives you that low and mid range torque but still runs out pretty good for the touring bikes.
@@GixxerFoo good to hear from you big guy" I'm considering installing the gear ⚙ drive cam system and at the same time remove my fueling 574 cams and put it the wood tw-222 cams I have the 2009 110cc cvo fatbob ; pc5 w/Rinehart crossback exhaust but still getting that low rpm like jittery throttle but smooths out with increasing the rpm and all is normal, do you think maybe it's from my cams power range causing this sputtering problem 🤔 "thanks and be safe!
Cams shouldn't cause that, l would have the tune checked out on the dyno. They can see that dip in the curve and correct it.
What’s your opinion on Vance and Hines cams for touring motorcycles with a twin cam
Did you ever do a video on 100 hp recipes for 103
I have several 103 videos on big bore kits, cams and even compression. There's a lot of ways to get there, cams ua-cam.com/video/ixeV1wRzsoY/v-deo.html, this one has some big bore kits ua-cam.com/video/71bgCSYkWj0/v-deo.html. This is my latest video which adds compression to the mix ua-cam.com/video/iM-rgPXBoj4/v-deo.html.
I ride a 2016 Softail FXSB Breakout. If I'm just cruise I normally shift between 2500 to 3000. We all get on it from time to time though! Lol I might have my girlfriend on once a week and she's just a little shit. So if I did try packing it up and going on trip I wouldn't load more than her weight. I'd love a better came but still want something that I can cruise with! Any suggestions? Thx!
Great all around cam is the Wood TW-222. It's got the low end torque but still runs out really decent. The 555 may be a little more on top than what you're after.
@@GixxerFoo Thx again for the reply and the videos take care!
Thank you! You too!
I just bought ss air cleaner and power vision to company vh big shots on my FXDF. Cam will be next. Which one? Btw cams will not be last. Will change pipes for 2-1 ,and big bore next year... But cam first ... Which one??
A couple great Dyna cams are the S&S 580, also Wood TW-555. You can go with a Wood 222 if you want more power in the low and mid. The 585 S&S and the 555 Wood have strong bottom but run out higher on top.
@@GixxerFoo thanx. Got one more . Power vision or custom tuno for stage 1 now? I Didi ask before with no answer. ..pls pls
@@chalibanec1 Power Vision and a auto tune works really well for the air cleaner and exhaust. Dyno tune is always best if you can get one, but a PV tune and then a good auto tune on the unit works great for stage 1.
@@GixxerFoo why both? Tuner I choosed,set I don't need PV as I will pay for licence in his garage in first Dyno session and that will be used for another future Dyno,after stage 2 etc
Do you have any experience or opinions on the S&S 509 cams in a TC88?
I have a stock 2014 street glide special 103. I'm going to get a 2-1-2 headers and a high flow air cleaner. I like to take off fast and like to get power when I need to pass at hight speeds. What would be a good throw in cam to keep me happy in the low and high end if possible?
Thanks in advance
Wood TW-222 is really good all around cam, power comes on early and it runs out really well into the upper RPM range.
@@GixxerFoo can I use those cams with stock push rods or do I have to change everything out. Or just buy a complete kit for the whole thing? Thanks for your help as well.
T-222 is straight bolt in cam, you can use the same pushrods and valve springs.
If you plan to go further with a big bore and heads, look at the woods tw777. I have v&h big shots 2 into 2 with a cross over and a Arlen ness monster sucker on my 14 dyna. I’ll be doing heads, big bore and cams at the same time
I'm going with S&S 551. Rpm range is 1000 to 4500. I don't like to rev much higher than that on my 13 RG.S&S push rods and lifters too and more$$.
What's the best cam for a 20/20 road glide special
It really depends on how and where you ride.
Are you under warranty or planning to upgrade to aftermarket after the warranty expires?
Love your channel,quick question,would the 222 cam be good setup for a 14 cvo limited?
That would be a great cam for your Limited, the 222 is what you want for sure in a touring bike with it's low end torque production.
@@GixxerFoo thank you!!
Cam plate. May be best. Investment. If true what say. Cool bike by. 20. To 40 deg. Cooler and. All round. Better. High flow. Oil.psi and oil. Flow. With fueling. Cam plate and oil pump..
generally what would the red line be on a 96?
01 Roadglide...111... Andrew's 67g
Andrews makes some really stout cams!
How do you feel about this cam?
@@dereknapier1132 I have run 16,000 miles with these cams in the engine I built and they perform very well but they hit hard it is a very performance cam set and they don't work well with fuel injection however I put the cams in back in 2014 when I built the engine so now there may be more programs for fuel injection that include these cams
TW777
Wood cams produce some impressive power!
@@GixxerFoo I am installing the tw-777 cams this weekend with s&s lifters and quickie pushrods. Got my map from fuel moto. I am also eliminating my 34t compensator with a 30t sprocket from evolution industries.

So for an 06 dyna, with cobra short swept, free flowing filter air filter, what would be your choice of cam??
No tac so ummm yeah
