Best cam for 88b heritage
#11
All Hydraulic and otherwise tension sprung H-d Products ( as well as their overpriced and JUNK "SCREAMIN EAGLE" UNITS ALONG WITH THIER cam plate and Cam configurations are JUNK !!!! BUY A GEAR DRIVEN S&S CAM SET as well as their Cam plate Unit and superior Oil pump for REAL performance and reliability upgrade .

Thanks for that input.........
I have heard of the A48 being an excellent choice for a 103ci and even read a few good reviews of it in a 96ci... this is the first I've heard/read a report of them doing real well in an 88ci.... I guess I always thought of the 88ci being the domain of the A21... Even the A26, while many are happy with it in an 88ci, seems to do better in a 95/96ci, and with a little bump in compression....
Since this is the first report I've read of the 48 doing well in an 88ci, can you elaborate a little...? Is it stock compression & heads? Carb (CV40?) or EFI? Does it pull throughout the rpm band, or just low and taper off... if so, approximate RPMS...?
I'll have to put your info in the old memory bank....
I'm doing an 88ci cam chest upgrade in the near future, run out permitting, I decided on gear drive A21s.... Always willing to learn/explore new options..

HD 203 cams
with stock valve springs. Power Commander III's are a good inexpensive tuner and lots of maps available. Imo.

The bike pulls all the way to the rev limiter setting at 5500
I have a friend who just did the A21 cam in his 2003 Heritage and I can pull past him with no issues
The exhaust sound after this cam was installed is awesome
