The TW6-6 cams would work very well on the 07-08 bike. Our Jackpot 2/1/2 headpipe will help the dyno #s on the 2009 and 2010 bikes, but we have always tried to utilize the stock headpipes on the pre-09 bikes as they work very well and I would expect 90+ HP and 100+ Tq.

 

Jamie, Everything else being equal, can you compare the torque curve from 1800rpm to 4500 rpm of these woods cams to the Se255 cams

 

Because I have not tested cams on the same day, on the same bike, with the same exhaust combination, etc.. all things are not equal for comparison. However, from the bikes we have tested with SE 255 cams they make similar power to the Woods TW6-6 from 2000-2500 RPM's but from 2500 on upward the TW6-6 makes signifigantly more power than the 255's.

 

Hello i have an 09 street glide with harleys heavy duty breather rinehart slipons and harleys race tuner. What kind of numbers do you think with keeping the slipons and air breather and do the cam and header pipes. And what would it cost to do that. Thanks

 

Jamie I sent an Email with my info. Any insight would help a lot.

 

Jamie, did you consider the WOOD TW5 ? Just curious.

 

Althought the TW5-6 has 3 degrees earlier intake open/closing which will move the torque peak slighly lower than the TW6-6, it has more lift and less duration than what we were looking for in a "do everything" cam. With the TW5's .575 lift I recommend changing valve springs as well.

 

I plan on installing the 6-6 cams this winter with a 4deg gear. Since I have a PC V and auto tune with Powerduals, Montser ovals and a Heavy breather, how much benefit do you think having the heads ported and milled to flow better and bump the compression? Also do I need to have compression releases put in if I do not do any headwork or even if I do? The motor is stock for now.
Jamie did you use the 4 deg gear on your build and how well does it start?

 

I diddnt use the 4 degree advance gear on our testing. The specs of the cams were already what I wanted and the specific Hp/Tq numbers we projected were reflected in the final dyno #s. The advance gear adds cost and more importantly increases cylinder pressure, our bike starts like a stock bike. These motors will benefit from porting and if you are raising the compression I would recommend not running the advance gear.

 

Jamie ,
Hows the snow up there? I will see you in a few months to tune some bikes for me.
I would try this cam set when you get a chance on a stock bike with your pipe combo. Your idle and start up will be fine with these. My 2 cents...
