I would like to add a little more power to my 2006 Street Glide. I have a good 88 motor, I already have 80hp and 81tq on the Dyno.

I have my stage 1 and true dual pipes. I do not want to do a 2 into 1.

I am thinking of adding the HD204 or the HD203 cams. I would like bottom end midrange power. I would like to see a power band of 1700rpm to 5800rpm.

I am setting my budget to $1,000.00 that will include labor rate of $45.00 hr. I have a good Indy guy that takes good care of me. I know I can do the cams for right around $500.00

I am looking for some advice from people that have been there done this, and I would like to learn from what you looked at and hwo you added more power.

Thank you for you help,

Bob

 

Check out HQ's 0034's.

 

I think that you are talking about HeadQuarter cams? Can you provide a link for me to look them up and get an idea of how much they cost?

Thanks

Bob

 

Andrews 26 works for me.

 

u opened a can of worms everyone will tell u how great there cams arebut cant help u with wich give the best lower end tourqe though. and u will have to add a pc or sert.

 

I can fix my bike, but can't attach a link. www.head-quarters. $299.89 including shipping.

 

Bob, I have Head Quarters' HQ-0034 (the pre-'07 version of the HQ500) cams in my '04 otherwise stock EG with Rinehart TD's and SE a/c. They've been in for 2+/20K miles and haven't thought about a 95" build since. They have an intake close of 36* which moves the torque earlier than comparable cams with 40* intake close.

You can use your stock push rods (I did) and tubes; or, good adjustables.

However, your goal of good torque from 1700 to 5800 is unrealistic without a really, really good set of fully ported heads. First, I don't ride at 1700. The Head-Quarters cams will be really good from 2250 or so to 5K.

The SE 203 cams are a waste of money IMO. Better than stock for sure, but weak compared to other popular aftermarket cams. I have buddies with SE BB 95" SE 203 cams and my bike runs stronger than their's.

Good luck with your project.

 

You make some good points. I will take a look at the HQ cams. I alreay have the PCIII on my SG. Also the "I don't ride at 1700rpms too. Maybe realisticly I should look at something that is in the 2000rpm range. My Indy guy has told me to stay away from the adjustable push rodes. He use to work with a V-Rod race team, and they had nothing bu problems with them, and they were running some of the best adjustable push rods..

When I built my motor I found out that I was limited to the power I was gonna get without someone working on the heads, No matter what kind of cams/air cleaner/exhaust, etc. you do it will be limited, you gotta have head work to get in the 100HP range. I found most head guys charge $600-$1000 to do a port job. Also, most guys on here that have hot rod engines have adj. pushrods and I have never heard of them failing on the street (mine will probably break today). I spent upwards of $4500 doing my engine upgrade, which I think is about the norm. Gary

 

Good catch. I should have said 0034's.
