And unless it is a 05 the valve springs will not handle .570" lift.

For a stock TC88 it seems S&S 509 or Andrews 21 are the most popular choices.

Cheers all, much appreciated. Bike would be a FXST etc. Just tossing up whether to spring for a 95 or buy a 88 and spend the money sorting out the tensioner issue. When looking at the SE kits came across the gear drive solution which included a cam upgrade for similar money and wasnt available when I had my last twinkie way back when

With stock heads etc any suggestion which S&S cams to go with if I was to go this way?
