RE: Cam Of The Year
Bruce00, I can't help but wonder how much your exhaust is affecting your bikes performance. I almost went w/the Road Rage on my TW26G 1550, but got to figuring that the RR's may be better suited to a more aggressive build than what I have. The freer flow of a more open exhaust seems to be better suited for high-end HP gains at the expense of low end TQ. I have no idea how the 203 compares w/Andrews TW26's, just that they're both "mild" cams. Something else to ponder I suppose...

I am just outside of Fredericton (near Grand Lake) and not to far from Norton, maybe next time. I am running SE203 cams in my 95" build right now, witch comes in at 234/ 239 .510/.510 a bit more agress than the Andrews 26G and HQ-0034G so I wouldn't even consider that. So with head work I think the HQ-0039G will be perfect if I stay with the flat pistons, but I an also considering going a bit higher in comp and a forged piston. donno $$ will decide how far I go with it lol. So you went to our three stealers did you, Toys isn't too bad for service but I stay away from there, Chopper Rods in Fredericton is a good spot for service.
I was just in New Brunswick at the beginning of the month. We did the Gaspe for 2 days, and spent 3 days in NB. What part of NB are you in? We stayed in Belldune a couple of nights, and in Norton, we went to 3 dealers while we were there also.
I was set on the Andrews 26G until someone on another forum said the HQ-0034G cam is like a mix of the 26G low-end and the 37G top-end.........not I'm debating again, and I hate to debate.

I'm still looking for info on the HQ-0034G.............someone on here voted for it in the poll but I don't know who. If no info comes on it, I'll go with the proven Andrews 26G.

Really can't answer that question because I went with the exhaust and a dyno tune with the PCIII all at the same time. Big difference from the stock pipes & HD download. But I can tell you this, when you hammer the bike off idle, it pulls alright till 2500/2800rpms, then pulls like a freight train till redline @6200. But I think thats the pipes not the cams.
Winter time the heads are coming off with either those being reworked or a set of SE CNC ported ones. Trying to work a deal on a brand new set that have been diamond cut

RE: Cam Of The Year
I have the 203's in my bike right now on a stock build with a PCIII, we were running up hwy 26 on sunday and I had the wife with me, we were running up hill on a long grade and the speedo was reading 90mph when the wife said,[sm=icon_beat.gif] slow down, heck, I was right on my buddies bike and he was solo.
I no that the 203's aren't the best cam in the world but I think there not to bad, I will eventually put in gear drives when I do a up grade down the road, say a 98" GMR kit and a set of Andrews 37g's.
