PM John and ask him. He builds racing motors and is in your area somewhere.So i guess no one knows how big of a cam you can go. Anyone in here have a cam bigger than the 650 woods in there bike?
I'm a few blocks from him. I'm not looking to do it I have the s&s 640 cam already. but when everyone starts talking about more power and different cams, I was just thinking out loud and wondering.
I don't know anyone personally but woods has told me he has set up several of the 124 SSW engines with the .720 lift cam. I can't imagine that its very streetable.So i guess no one knows how big of a cam you can go. Anyone in here have a cam bigger than the 650 woods in there bike?
I run a Red Shift 656 lift cam in my 117....So i guess no one knows how big of a cam you can go. Anyone in here have a cam bigger than the 650 woods in there bike?
absolutely right there Al - that is the cam I have. :2thumbs:Your correct Lee I guess I should have noted that there are 2 different 650 cams that woods offers. The difference being the duration. You should have a more compression with a longer duration which is why the woods came out with the designer cam called the W6HF with a .248 duration that can be ran with slightly lower compression. This is the cam that I think you have Lee. I am running the woods W9F which has a .256 duration which likes a little more compression. This is what I was told at woods and he basically that these were just the recommended comp ratios that would put the cam in the sweet spot but obviously they can be ran lower.
nice! :up:I have installed a W-62 cam in a 2007 TX Chopper with a 111 motor. Sent heads down to G Square, set up as street and strip port work. Took .30 off the heads W200 springs, G carb with thunder jet, S&S dual runner, Electric shift, Autometer shift light, Crane IGN, this thing rocks! Took it to the drag strip ran low 10’s out of the box. Adjusted tire pressure & little more fuel went right to 10 flat. Still this bike is street ridden, super fun to ride. Just hard on parts in the long run. Woods turn out a great selection of cams for any Big Dog motorcycle application. :up:
i have the 640 with around 11+ compression and i wouldnt call it a midrange set-up.The 600, and 640 cams are mid range cams.Had a 600 cam .
Never heard of Hillside Cycles, it's in NY state? What city they in?I just got my engine back from Hillside Cycles NY with the 650 Woods Cam, bigger valves, guides, springs, port and polished heads, modified Super G w/Thunderjet, Thunderheart ign. and it's at the shop being Dyno'ed tuned by Monday. Scott Palmer told me my compression is at 11.3 to 1. I will have Dyno #'s by this Monday. :2thumbs:

That's practically in my back yard, they say they have been around for 20 yrs but I've never heard of them. I hope the work they performed for you is what they claim it is. Sometimes these motor shops claim to have more experience than they truly do. I should take a trip up there and see what they have to offer. Never know when you might need some good advice.

Never even heard of them and you're going to throw out that kind of accusation. :nono: :zzdisappointed:I hope the work they performed for you is what they claim it is.

Yea, they might just tell you that they can see that a very abrupt occupational change is in your near future too with that ego!Never know when you might need some good advice.
