Cam Change

The PCV with Auto Tune Modules cost around 600.00.

Dynojet Power Commander V Five


You will have to call jamie with yer mode, year and make.

You want a Power Commander V Retrofit Kit with auto tune modules for a 08 model.

If you tell him your basic setup on what you are going to have, he will load a map for that. The auto tune moduels will tune it closer as you ride.

Jamie is the only person that is retrofiting a kit for the 08 motorcycles.

Every time I ask someone about a cam I get a different answer. I'm still looking for a came that will give good low and mid range torque. I want a cam that will work good with the 96 motor. If I went to a 103 I would get a different cam. Hope someone can pass some ideas along. My indy wants to install woods 37H cams and a Terry Components tuner. Read up on the TC and it is junk. Costs twice as much as my cheap fueler and doesn't really work any better. Hope someone will drop some ideas. Have a great weekend.

I keep saying you need to look at what a total package you are gonna build.
If you git a Woods TW6 cam it will work good in a 96cu motor and it will work good in a 103cu motor.
When you do the heads you will have to know what kind of pistons yer gonna use.
I would use JE flatop pistons.

A Woods TW6 cam will come in around 1800 rpm and pull all way to over 5000 rpm.

Would that work in yer torque range ?

Ck this out,

And feel free to call Bob Woods during the week and talk with him.

Thanks cardboard. That cam will work in my torque range. For now all I would do is cams. The 103 may be in the future. 1800 to 5000 is a good torque range. Thanks for the input. Another question. Do you get a small lope and idle? Wondering how the 6-6 cams made your bike idle? Did you do your own cam install? Wondering if I got cams could I stall them myself? I have a harley shop Manuel. How difficult was the install?

Do you have a inch lb wrench and ft lb wrench, sockets, toque head drivers. locktite, Bolt Cutters, allen head wrench on a socket, open end wrenchs, screw drivers. ETC, ETC.

You might be able to do it. Do not know how mechanical inclined you are.
It might be a job just takin the pipes off and puttin them back on.
And the whole time yer jackin with the bike that is more time you ain't riddin.

Do you know how to adjust quick install push rods ? Push rods bend easily and the bike will not run if the push rods are not adjusted correctly.
Lucky for me I have a Redneck I can ask questions.
I tend to forgit things if I don't do them often.

This is very important, and if you don't do you know anybody that does?
For the money you might just have a qualified person to do it for you so you don't tear anything up.

If you git the cams and SE quick install pushrods and gaskets. you 1/2 way there. Save some extra money and let somebody do it for you.

You can even find a harley dealer that will do this for you.

Just don't let anybody talk you out of the TW6 cams.:gah:
You will definately feel the seat of the pants dyno difference with the TW6 in yer bike.

The most important number in a cam's specs that indicates how the cam will perform is the intake closing. The early closing cams will have more power at lower rpm; a later closing number will make power at higher rpm. This is true no matter the size or compression ratio of the engine. If you really want the best low and midrange torque and don't care about lots of power above 4000 rpm, a cam like Andrews' TW21 is the best.
Also, any mild aftermarket cam will make more power at all rpm than the EPA-mandated stock cam. But most racy cams will make much less power than the stocker at the rpm levels most often seen in normal street riding.

If you install a Woods 6 or say an Andrews tw-54 cam how will the sound of the bike change. I realize you will get HP and torque increase, but is there a noticable different sound out of the pipes? I am thinking of doing this cam change and then make a decision on the 103 upgrade later next summer. I already have the stage 1 with V&H dresser duals and Big Sucker air cleaner.

How does the exhaust note change? With my current set up above, does it get deeper? Louder? Slower? Just curious on what to expect. Thanks.

You can hear it push a little more air which makes more exhaust sound.
The lift on the cam will go from like 480 to 510 lift depending on which cam you choose.
I could crank my bike and tape it, but you couldn't hear it well enough.

But when you twist the throttle you will fell it in the seat of yer pants.

Why !

OK, I'll bite, what is a compression release and what does it do for performance and sound?

I like the sound of my bike, sounds like a John Deer. It is a little loud when you romp it hard off a light but I don’t do that very often. Cam will make it deeper like it is coming from your throat, like cardboard said more air, more noise. With a good 510 lift cam you get you just enough lope to sound real good. Those guys with the SE cams & exhaust hate me.

Why do you want a compression release !

What benefit do you think you will got from a compression release ?
