When it comes to the Twin Cam 103, not everyone wants or needs a big bore kit, but when a stage 1 isn't enough it's time for a cams swap. Choosing the right cam will take full advantage of your stock components and still be easy on the valvetrain. Cams allow you to target the areas you ride most and put the power where you want it. The right cam can increase your power potential up to 100 horsepower with the right exhaust and a proper tune at a fraction of the cost of a full stage kit.

My 2014 103, I put a Woods 222 cam in. Could not be happier. I also did the heads. Power numbers are 116 lb/tq and 103 hp. I looked around and could not find a cam with better torque numbers down low. I love it.

Does it make sense to true up/bullet proof your bottom end crankshaft and crankcase before getting into a big top end build? Cheers.

@GixxerFoo 3 года назад

If you were doing a complete case split rebuild l would do it at that time. If you're doing a top end kit for the street l wouldn't tear it down to do that. If you're racing it or you ride them really hard l could see tearing it down for that. I appreciate the support on the channel!

After thirty years and 250,000 miles riding Harley Davidson motorcycles I made the switch to BMWs. Loved my HDs, terrific bikes, I just wanted a different riding experience. I do wished I would have hung on to one of them as I miss the Harley experience. This channel has rekindled my interest in reacquiring a Big Twin, and I'm off to look at a 2013 low-mile Road King in the morning. I'll keep all 3 'Beemers', and with the addition of FLHR, I'm thinking I'll have my bases covered.

@GixxerFoo 3 года назад

Good choice! I like the Wood personally, it just has more power everywhere without the dips and valleys in the curve other cams have. Some people complain they are noisy, which they can since they have a lot of overlap to hold the valves open longer to get that power.

@robertfrantz4788 2 года назад

GixxerFoo, I'm glad you made this video. I have a 2016 103HO, and I've been contemplating swapping out the cam chest. I've put close to 40,000 mile on it. It hammers pretty good, and if you need to evade, pass, etc... you can grab a gear and hammer on it. It has a great rpm range. I'm just looking to give my bike some more practical torque, and horsepower without compromising reliability, rather, increased intervals of maintenance. If you've built "hot rod" bikes you know what I mean. I was thinking of the SE585, the only one for my bike by SE, or Fueling's 543, or 574, or the 525 kit. But, since watching your video I think I'll nichs the SE cam. For me they're mostly on par, yeah you gain a little, but the cost outweighs the benefit. You're not getting enough bang for your buck. The Fueling kits are nice and cheaper than S&S kits. I'm not knocking S&S by any means. I've been a customer of theirs many times. One reason I'm considering Fueling is that they give you a cam description as to how it will function, and its rpm range. The same can be said about the whole kit. That's helpful information. S&S's website, their product description doesn't go in depth like Fueling. I don't think S&S regularly maintains their website, or they want you to go to a dealer. Your mileage may vary. Then again, I just may eat crow, and have the local Harley dealer install the SE585, SE tappets, the SE cam plate and oil pump, SE adjustable push rods, etc... It depends on how thirsty I am to swap out the cam chest. Regardless of whether I do it myself or let the dealer do it, I have to get the ECM programmed at the dealer. I don't have the software, or else I'd do it. By the way, If you know of an alternate way to adjust my ECM let me know. Best Regards,

@kerrylewis2581 3 года назад

I was happy to see you focus on TQ and how and what you ride. A cam increases power but more importantly, it shapes power to your riding style. I have S&S 551 cams in my 2013 ultra limited because I almost always ride with a passenger and with all three bags stuffed to capacity. It's not rev-happy but my TQ is over 100 before 2,000 RPMs and carries all the way out to over 4,000. I would have liked to try the S&S 583 but I went with my dyno tuners advice since I feel he know much more than I do.

I ride a 2015 Road glide special. I bought it from Classic HD of Reading Pa. As the story goes...one of the owners had the bike built up for a "tail of the dragon" ride he wanted to go on. Beside a bunch of other upgrades, as the story goes, it has Andrews 57 cams installed. More apparent, it had a D&D 2 into 1 and a Performance machine freeflow intake...and I it was tuned (and I still have) the orange (outlawed) HD tuner it was tuned with originally and I also have a V&H fuelpak 3 that I bought to make adjustments to the tune when I made a change. The bike, as purchased, was insanely loud at first. I bought the quiet baffle from D&D but that only quieted in down so much. With the original baffle, it will easily peg the speedometer ...pulling hard all the way. With the quiet (louvered) baffle, it will hit 120 but it takes a bit longer ( I have a 3 mile strip of smooth highway I test it out on a few times per week in the summer)... My only complaint about the cam is that it's tougher to ride slow and I think it makes the bike loud (I've changed the pipes to a complete V&H dual system but that only decreased the power but it was still loud). With the perforated baffle it screams, it's plenty strong with the louvered baffle too...but it's still really loud. Is there a way to make a 103 quiet but pretty powerful and nice to ride at slower cruising speeds. I love my bikes power. It'll run with nearly anything but it's loud and a choppy when I'd like to go slow and quiet.

V&H sent me a custom tune. Runs awesome. Just swapped out the big city thunder QQ baffles for the monster baffles. More logical for my bike as the QQ baffles do not fit the correct way in my duel exhaust. Going to have it Dino tuned for 400.00 and call it good. Also got the legend rear shocks and axeo front cartridges. OH MY GOD. Power and comfort. The bike I dreamed of getting the first time I bought it. There was wear on the cam tensioners. Also the Manufacturer put the lifters in backward, the oil slot was facing the wrong way on one head. Way to go, Harley Davidson.

Originally the bike made 70hp a massive 40% increase in power from a stock 103cu with the right cam change...

Thank you! Just a cam swap with a good aftermarket cam, exhaust and tuned on a dyno they make more power than a entire Screamin Eagle big bore kit. S&S makes a nice cam and I really like that easy start option which eliminates the need for compression releases. S&S even uses the easy start cams in their high horse, high compression crate engines.

I chose the S&S MR103 easy start cams, a .585 lift, the MR stands for medium range. It seems to be a good match. The advisor at S&S assured me I don't need to change anything like valve springs or port and polish the heads($950 for that!). The dynamometer showed 98hp at 110 lbs of torque, not bad. I think people overlook S&S due to them being so well known and probably think they are too old school and conservative. There R&D probably is top notch and are truly a proven company. I also changed to an S&S cam plate and oil pump setup, and have the V&H FP3 tuner.

For me with a touring bike I would have to with the Wood TW-222, that cam's power is just so broad and it works very well with the heavier bikes. Best thing to do though is really watch your riding habits to make sure the cam you like makes power in the RPM range you ride.

For touring bikes the Wood TW-555 or the TW-777 are excellent choices, high torque and great horsepower. The TW-555 is a good choice if your keeping the heads stock and just running pipes, air cleaner and a good tune. Now TW-777 is a better option if you plan on doing some head work and bumping compression later on. Both cams are a straight bolt in so you won't have to worry about valve springs or anything else.
