I have a 2010 Road King that only has a stage 1 (Fat Cat Boss, AN big sucker, and a Fuelpak). The bike runs well, but I am thinking about adding a cam. I have heard a lot about the Wood cams and would like to know what the performance differences are between the TW-5-6, the TW-555 and the TW-6-6. I have been on the Wood website, but the description of the cams does not give me enough perspective about each of the cams. What I want is a cam that has good TQ all the way through the power band.

Thanks Brent.

 

Brent,

Fuel Moto has some write ups on both of these cams. I would spend some time looking over this thread.

here is another site I used when making my cam choice:

There is really no such critter...unfortunately...
Seems that you can have cams that are strong in the low and middle ranges or you can have one that is strong in the middle to high end of the powerband, and this is regardless of what anyone says as this is just the way it is..
So you have to decide where it is that you want your power..
What RPM's do you mostly ride at?
I think that most folks ride up to 3500 or so...obviously higher at times..and if that is the case then you probably want a low to middle cam...or having your power on the left side.. as the experts say..and do you ride 2 up much?

 

thanks for the replies. I do not ride two up and to answer the question about what type of TQ range I would like is low to mid range. I just don't want something that completely falls flat at 3500 - 4000 RPM.

 

TW 5-6 for stock comp & stock heads is best!!!

 

I agree call Jamie at Fuel Moto and check out his threads. Those of us with Woods cams are real happy and the 6 and 555 in particular will serve you well if you upgrade to a 107 some day in the future.
