Cams are money well spent. I had the factory stage 1 and added the cams. I would go ahead and knock out the roller rockers at the same time while it is apart. I did it later and it was dumb on my part. I also bought the garage 56 ecu. Nice thing is the ecu learns and you can easily merge the maps to get it to run pretty smooth. It would be great if you can find a tuner to sit in your passenger seat but good luck with that. Few use the protune software so I found it nearly impossible to get help.
The Morgan pulls really hard throughout the range with the cams 2sharp, since i did cams and rollers at the same time i never got to feel/notice the difference of adding the roller rockers. What sort of a difference did you notice?

Having been passed on the curves heading up from Sperryville to Skyline drive, I would agree

Because of my limited understanding of what’s necessary to properly remap an ECU I’ve made an error. An open road tune with a lap top using Protune connected to the ECU will not properly tune the engine. A proper calibration also requires hp and torque measurements provided by a dynamometer. The only dynamometer made for M3Ws I know of is at Krazyhorse in the U.K. I’m not aware of any in the U.S. My local V Twin performance shop is owned and operated by an American V Twin master mechanic who has worked closely in the past with the S&S R&D division. They are very qualified to work with the X Wedge engine. I’m going to have to go back and talk with them.

Thanks 2sharp. I thought that might be the case but when I was installing the cams I noticed roller lifters, or they appear to look like rollers so I figured it could not be all bad.
