Cool Link ...

Try inputting your #'s here ....the more info you can provide the closer you'll be ...

you'll need to know what the compression ratio is then you'll be able to select the cams better !!!

I have a 98" S&S on my carb Road king with an Andrews 57 cam. Could not possibly be happier. When I started toying with the cam job idea I contacted Andrews and they agreed with what cam I thought I wanted. Best of luck.
