best cam for 03 flhrsei2

Just got a 03 flhrsei2 103 I want to change the cam in it to get better low end torque. It is a flat line from 2-3200 rpm then moves up. Currently has 88hp and 96tq. Rhinehart trueduals, Se aircleaner, and pc3. I know if I change the pipes it will help, But I want to keep them. I would like the tq to kick in around 2000rpm. I had a 203's in my dyna it was great. What would you suggest? Thanks for the help.

Well, here's my opinion since i have installed 3 different cams in 3 different CVO 103's.

SS570. Not bad, quiet, eaiser starting, but builds power late after 3200 rpms.
Redshift 575..Not bad and felt similar to the SS570 but felt it kicked in a bit sooner.
Woods TW6..the winner.Power kicks in instant(or just about), bike start easier and is getting better mileage, low and midrange tq and more power overall. It doesn't feel like it looses steam until over 5k...the first 2 cams may show more horsepower not torque on the dyno, but dont let it fool you.

All the cams will feel better, but the tw6 might be the best choice IMHO.
Now...here might be your deal breaker. If you want tq at the low an RPM the RH duals will kill whatever is gained by a cam swap. If you were to go to a TW6 wood's cam and a fatcat you will be a very happy man!

Now, if you really want a kick in the pants ride, send those heads out to be ported. Hillside did an amazing job on this build. This bike for a 10 to 1 compression 103 with a 510 lift cam is beating out many a bigger build and also lighter bikes.

Dont forget a GOOD tune when done.
