Default Calibration Code

I averaged 43.7 MPG riding two up and loaded to the hilt (what is a hilt?). Honestly, 6th gear at 55/60 MPH feels like 4th used to. I've lost nothing in performance. I have everything I had before the BB just a whole lot more of it.
I have an 09 SE Fat Bob for sale. If it doesn't go soon I'm going to put the 54H cams it to.

Gary, Would you happen to have the SERT calibration code from this prior build? I'm going a 103"/.030/54H build shortly and it'd be great to have a close matching code until the pistons are seated nicely for a custom tune. Thanks.. Troop

This bike is great, pulls great everywhere. I have a friend making 108 HP and 106TQ and he can't beat me in a drag race and I leave him in the dust on a roll anywhere from 2000rpm to 3000rpm.
I am a big fan of this cam.
My suggestion is if you climate is not too hot go to a 107 motor vs a 103.
A 2 into1 exhaust is key, and keep the compression around 10:1.
This is not my first Harley build, but it is my favorite.
The other thing is the bike has no valve train noise.
I get 104/114 sae with the 54's in a 103. Compression 10.4:1 with a Fatcat and WFO Larry's heads (mild port job).

Ridability is everything I had hoped for, responsive in every rpm range, even down low. Quiet and well mannered cam.

I'm stuck between the TW555 And the 54H. I have a factory 103 and not going to do any headwork. Anyone with the TW555, is it as noisy as the other Woods cams?

I used the cam in my 95" build up, and I'm pretty happy with it. Seems to like the bump in compression, and moves the bagger out well.

I have a stock 103 motor and really like how the cam pulls all the way threw. I think
most are going with the Se 204 or 255 thinking they will have the warranty in tact.
I guess tme will tell on that one.

I've never seen that cam in a 95" before. Thanks for posting it.
Any trouble with valve springs? I didn't think they had the room for that lift.

When I had the heads P&P, I had the high lift spring kit done, and a valve job.

The Engineer I spoke to at Andrews said he recommended it, that it was borderline.

I don't know what that means Troop. But I'll ask the tuner on Monday and let you know.
