Don't take this the wrong way, but for your question the Search function would be your best bet. There are pages of post on cams. Check it out and you should find what your looking for.

Woods cams are ground by Andrews per his specs. As well as T-Mans. There still are differences as each "builder" has what works best for them. Asking what are better on this forum is like asking what oil is better or color of bike is faster.

I like Woods cams, also Mobile 1 oil and black harley's are faster.

You can call FuelMoto. He has a thread going on his install of the Woods 6 cam and PC tuner. I'm pretty sure he is selling a package for what you are talking about.

I went back and forth for a while between the Woods 6-6 and a couple of the Andrews cams. Bottom line was that the Andrews cams were about half the price and that won out for me.

Can't go wrong with either. Woods are proven time and time again to make the big time TQ.

The most important thing to consider is that ANY (every) cam has an optimal set of conditions, under which is performs best. Things like displacement, compression ratio, bike model, gearing, head setup, intake / exhaust (to name a few) all play into the equation. Furthermore, riding style, where ya live, fuel quality are also factors.

For example, a Wood 6 likes 10+: compression, and when properly setup will make good power and ride well. However, if you throw them into a stock motor they may not respond as well as something like an Andrews 26. But if you change things up later on, the 26 will not be happy with much more than 9.5:1 static compression.

The "right" answer (if there is such a thing) is a little more complicated than just "Which one is best?".... Despite what some may lead you to believe.
