Still have to tear it down but if I have to it probably has to be crank up. Can't get dome pistons (or at least haven't found any yet) for the heads ('04 103+ hemi). So it will be pretty pricey. Just looking at options, including buying a low km used unit, right now. I start the tear down tomorrow hopefully.

Ultima makes a Twin Cam, they haven't been out long so there isn't much feedback yet.

Wonder what compression is. That cam needs some compression to be happy. Like maybe 11:1. Interesting choice

Best thing to do is get hold of an ultima dealer. I bought my Ultima evo 120 through a dealer.

Ultima likes cams with a lot of overlap, I guess for easier starting.  :nix:
In a lighter bike like a Dynaglide, that cam would be OK. Better choices for a barge.

IIRC, Arias made those. There is a set on Ebay
Here's a .010 over set.
Ignorance is bliss, and accuracy expensive. How much of either can you afford?

Thanks. I haven't looked for a while.

A neighbor in Alberta wrecks newer bikes and often has low mileage motors etc for reasonable prices

Dammit!!! Just went to buy them and they were gone.  :emoGroan:  I did find some circlips and a set of std. rings though. Is EBay good at sending search notifications?
