lots of guys will miss this not in the direct panhead section so move it when you post pictures maybe 6 or 8 all around the bike and look at the bottom numbers on the cases see if they match left and right sides - the more pictures the better info you will get as we are not with you unless you bring it to the site using pictures

As mentioned, the best resource is Palmers 2nd Edition. It is very detailed. Pics help, lots of them, in general and specicis as well. if you go to look at it, take someone with you that knows about Panheads and, who has a copy of Palmers.
Just curious...what is the asking price?
