I know this is a wide open question as opinion plays as much of a part in the decision as do the facts/numbers.

What I have: 95" SERG with the 203's. SE air cleaner, Bassani slip on's, Power commander.

What I have on the shelf: Ported heads, SE roller rockers, SE adjustable push rods, gasket set.

A little history. The ported heads were on my B motor in my softail. With a set of TW60's, a SE Pro Pipe, SE 44 mm CV, SE Intake, and low comp (10:1) cast pistons. The bike made 105 hp and 105 tq. This was not it's best numbers as far as peak, this was the best power curve.

So I know the heads will flow a little bit of air. Now what I'm after is some cam choices. This is  more of a highway bike than a around town bike. I can either keep the OEM pistons Harley sent through or replace them with something with a tad bit more compression. The cams can either be standard or geared. I have no preference.

My current setup is netting me 82.8 HP and 94 TQ. Ultimately I'd like to see 1-tens to 1-teens on both HP and TQ.

My wife has an 02 Fatboy, 95 inch, 211 HD cams,SE heads, Dyna ign. module, Mukuni 42 mm carb, roller rockers, adj. pushrods, and V&H Pro-Pipe One. I have to really push my bike to beat her.

Send the heads to someone like Deweys or Big Boys ...you what to end up at 9.6-9.8:1 comp with your flat top pistons and a .030 cometic..1.59 exhaust valve for good port velocity..and a set of 37 g cams. Great bagger build...100\100  witht he torque starting big at 2000 rpm.
JMHO

As I stated above I have PORTED heads already. No need to send them any where. 100/100 I believe I could achieve with almost any cam bigger than I already have. I'd be gaining 6 in TQ and 18 in HP. It's Ok but not really what I'm after.

The 37's are a good recommendation. They show some nice numbers. I like the HQ0039 also. It's a nice split lift cam.

In a 95 for a touring bike you may also want to look at the Red Shift TC557 or S&S 570. I would go with a gear driven set.

I'll take a look at those two you mentioned. This is a tough decision. [smiley=confused5.gif]Picking cams for my Softail was easy, the biggest I could get to work.

[Puzzled]

The Red Shift has a nice mild duration at only 242. The S&S offers a split duration of 240/255. The lift on the S&S is on the large side at.570. I know my springs were set up for TW 60's so they would handle the Red Shift's at .557 lift. I'd have to check them to see how much lift they can take. I guess I'll dig out the spring tools some time this week. [smiley=confused5.gif]

[DCFIREMANN]

Well if you are looking for a high RPM and high HP cam look at the S&S 640. I am running them in my 95 and it runs great.

[Puzzled]

No I'm not after high RPM. I'd like a real strong mid range cam. 2-5000 rpm. Unfortunately my desired output range will be sacrificed some but I can live with that.

You may want to consider a Woods/Andrews TW400 it runs in the 1teens to low 1-twenties

IT'S ALSO NOISEY AS HELL!!!!!!!

[nidan]

Yeah .. you got a point about the noise on some Woods cams , although that depends. Some contend that has to do partially with the installation rather than the cams ..

There are some(HD Tech forum ) that have the TW400 and no noise issues.

That doesn't sound much like a Bagger combination. Let me rephrase that, a Touring Bagger combination. That is some nice numbers out of a 95". [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

[kng103]

the se-257 will work nice with the combo you have.
is the bike carbed or injected?
what year is the bike?
i thought the heads on a b motor were a little different.
