Andrews 57h cams
Lifters ended up being Gaterman GP1023 ( I had Comp Cams 850-1s originally, but one was ticking away so I swapped to the Gatermans as I found some new old stock ones.)
Pushrods are S&S Quickees
0.030" Cometic MLS head gaskets
Static compression looks to be 9.90:1
Corrected compression is 9.2:1
CCP 190.6 @ sea level

Other stuff - the air cleaner is a DK Customs Outlaw 636v and the pipe is a D&D BobCat.

The bike is a blast to ride!

Looks like we will have a similar built (without headwork for now) except i've got Smith Bro's pushrod and Wood lifters....
Do you know what springs he use for your heads ?

Can't wait to put the parts on

I don't know what brand of springs, but they are high performance beehive springs.

Here's a couple of gratuitous shots of the bike from earlier today....

I'm dying to hear what #'s you get Robby. And I secretly hate you for all the awesome engine work you are doing.

LOL, well think of the money I've spent doing things twice, that should make you feel better (although it's been so much fun getting into some projects multiple times just to practice the lessons I've learned)!

Right now it's sitting at around 1000rpm and fluctuates at a standstill between 970 and 1070 (I haven't adjusted anything there). That sound bite I posted was probably a little higher since it was at first start.
