of course you're right. I was thinking more of the performance that comes after stage II, when the gains start getting a bit more impresssive. I could have been more clear, though, and that isn't the point of this thread, which is bolt in cams for a 96. I have a problem knowing when enough is enough sometimes, lol.

Don't get me wrong. I like the Woods 6 cams a lot. Further I'd have no problem installing a set of Woods 6 or 555 cams in a 96. (Of course, I'd rather put them in a 103 at 10.2 compression. )

Here's a 103 with street ported heads set at 10.3 static compression, Woods 6 cams
 
I think the whole point of this thread was that either one of them would work. However, as wholehog pointed out, your results will likely be different with a different exhaust and tuner.
 
Bingo. Jamie's proving that he is willing to invest what it takes to find whatever cams (etc.) are the most perfect fit with his new exhaust systems by assuring "tunability" and repeatability. Well... lots of the good industry folks do that sort of stuff too and besides, a wide-spread customer base means good return. The difference though:He's ALSO willing to share insight and report findings to his customer base while he's doing that homework.
IMHO, he's not trying to gain bragging rights to some sort of "magic formula". He's right out there in this public forum advising us of his discoveries as he goes, not after he's done. We're all learning this way. Bravo for sticking your neck out there Jamie and thanks - big time.

Damn - I quit racing in 1979. I don't need to do this "sponsorship" rite anymore (but I still like the folks who really DO hunt for the best packages instead of the cheapest way to get ahead).

WOW! That an impressive 103" build!
 
Interesting thread. I just bought from Fuel Moto and installed on my 08 RKClassic the Woods 6-6 cam plus Jackpot mufflers onto V&H True Dual headers so interested to see how this works out with the bigger engine and the 555 cam.

As far as I'm concerned the openness that Fuel Moto show in what is basically a public experiment speaks volumes about the kind of guys they are.

They know who they work for and I for one am grateful.
 
One thing to note about that high power 103" dyno sheet is that it is "uncorrected" instead of in STD or the standard SAE. Not that it isn't a strong build or a great tune, but (unless I have a total mis-understanding) the SAE correction factor is there to bring the numbers more inline from dyno to dyno so a more accurate comparison can be made. The uncorrected numbers most likely are a bit higher than a SAE sheet from what I have gathered.
