Cam Specs
It's not difficult to get cam specs for any of the aftermarket cam manufacturers. My question is: What are we actually starting with for an FL cam or an FLH cam. Having the specs on these cams would make it possible to do some comparisons.
Re: Cam Specs
I believe the FLH cam was listed at .390 Go easy on the cam selection, less is more.

Re: Cam Specs
I miked some of my cams: an Andrews 212960 cam for FLE, an original FL and a V-Twin Sifton 10-8168 FLH replica. The non-overlap of the curves for front an rear is due to measurement errors, except for the FLH cam: intake timing for front and rear is different, alledgedly to compensate the uneven suction intervals of a 45 degees V-twin. Please note that the VALVE lift is given, not the CAM lift. Exhaust is the left hump, intake the right - of course.
