I agree, aftermarket kits make more hp and torque. As far as the thunderheader goes, I was under the impression it was a good performance exhaust but I've never owned one I can however vouch for the d&d fat cat being one of the best choices as I run one and know a few others who have one. Another good choice is the road rage. Search the forums for 117 numbers and compare the dyno charts of screamin eagle kits to aftermarket kits. You'll see a difference.

That's next on my list after I finish my lrs. Gonna take a while due to finances but I want to do a 124 wide glide. Lol Then maybe I can do high 9s at 140 mph at a weight of 126 lbs and be an s&s dealer and hijack threads to brag. Sorry, I had to.

Still have to bore your cases so youll be pretty close to a 124 crate motor for the price but then again youd have a 124 built to your spec. All preferences

Its a good pipe but there are better flowing pipes on the market Nowadays Got a rr3 waiting to be put on for my build. I have a fatcat but am not a fan of the length on a dyna too long

Yea see that boils down to style and preference cause I'm the opposite where I love the fatcat look/sound/length, but don't like the appearance of the rr3. Rr3 sounds bad as **** though and it seems like they're slightly better for performance than the fatcat.
Op are you still there lol?

Don't see what this has to do with op's thread as you didn't actually answer any of his questions but way to hijack and show off repeatedly.Funny thing is tincup's post didn't seem angry, just sounded like he called you out and you were overly sensitive which tells us a lot. Try answering op's questions next time instead of bragging and getting offended when you get called out. Despite tincup's low tolerance for idiots, many of us find him to be one of the more knowledgeable and helpful members of this community.....you should try it sometime...Edit: this was supposed to be an edit to one of my previous posts but it posted as a separate post for some reason. Wasn't trying to knock the thread offtrack again.

Once you hit 130/130, what other mods to the bike are required? Will the LS clutch hold? Is crank welding required? Bearing and oiling mods? I seem to have a hard time locating at what point certain mods are required.
I posed a similar question on harleytechtalk about when bottom end work is required with an engine build. General consensus from professional engine builders was that bottom end work should be part of any complete engine build. Stock crank was designed for stock hp/tq, that's it. While the cases are split, bearing upgrades also make sense. Only mention of oiling system upgrades was on earlier dynas (pre 07).

This is a matter of opinion. Some people will say it's absolutely necessary, others will say it isn't. In my opinion, it's only an extra 7 cubic inches, and decent, but not major increase in power. If I went with an aftermarket supplier 117 kit that made 145+ hp or tq, it would be a different story.
