Hey thanks for posting your numbers Domenicp7, those are similar to what the guy im dealing with says i will get, hes saying with my components i should see 96HP and 110 TQ. I think im gonna go with the build as planned and then if theres stuff i want to change i can do it down the road. Thanks for all the feedback everybody:-)

This is not true for bikes manufactured after 2007. I hear more misinformation from people who have talked to dealerships than from anywhere else, no bullshit. You'll learn far more on here than you ever will at a dealership. I didn't look at your signature, so I don't know what you're riding, but if it's a post 2006 you do not need gear driven cams.
The issue is whether a geared cam would improve performance and eliminate backlash. I take it you are saying the geared cam would not necessarily be an improvement in performance.

Mine is a 2009 FLHX, so I know I don't NEED to go with a geared cam to extend the life of the motor and prevent the tensioners from tearing up. And my dealer acknowledges this problem was fixed on the new TC96.

I'm not a mechanic or an authority on this, but I did do a lot of research before I had my cams installed. From all of the information I learned, nobody told me that I'd be better off with gear driven cams. So I don't believe you'd have any more performance simply because you used them.
THANKS for the feedback.
