the tw8 at about 10.8 but the t-man 625 cam is a wordl apart from the woods cam quiet on the ears it does not hit as hard but it is as just as good as the woods cam. i have a 103 dyno sheet with se 103 heads re-done stg 1 port job by tr and the 625 cam 10.3 compression with true duals send me your e-mail address and i will send it to you you can judge for your self.
also i have a few others.
if i was going all out ***** to the wall power build in a softtail or dyna then i would go with the woods i run it my self in my bike but for a bagger and from many customers happy comments on daves recent builds with TR stuff it looks like a real win win combo.
you can run the 615 from the other shop but i can guarantee you either the woods or t-man cams will out perform and out power that cam in another bike with identical set up every time.
yopu asked our opinion
oh yea i ran the 615 in a 98 . ok cam but i would never run it again.

SEDELUXE, thanks for the replies. Have also looked at TMan stuff.
.625 looks good as does the .662-1

the 662 you will need some compression around 10.8 and up.
i have been eyeing up the 662-2 for my bike for some time now. i have to wait for now maybe in the spring i will see.

Gasser, who's heads you running. Also, What springs? Roller rockers?

Plenty of combos out there now. A number of cams from Wood or tman will be great, just depends on the whole combo, not the single part if you know what i mean. Where do you live, what kind of bike. Long trips or short. What gas you use? Do you have a good tuner by you?

Hillside and Sedeluxe have had some great suggestions already.

Another brutal, torque producer, is a Wood 400. Wood's Lifetime Warranty Springs, and good roller rockers are needed. S&S are the ones we prefer.
That is the mac-daddy, of the 6, 6H, 7H, family. Power delivery is like turning a light switch on.

The roller rockers I have are S&S, so it appears that was a good choice. Some of the cams suggested have a intake closing, close to, or the same as the DM.590. What makes the tq come on sooner/harder with the Woods? Is it lobe profile?, LSA? Lobe Center? Thanks.

I know I'm asking a lot of questions, so your paitence is thanked. Can I run 2007 later Woods chain drive cams in a 2003 with the right camplate and oil pump?
