Do you like this combination? Is it balky below 2500 to 3000?
Thanks,

It could be a little soft down low if not for the re-gear. I tried 30/70 and didn't care for it settled on 30/68 and it worked for me. You can definitely tell when you hit 3500 rpm.

I just finished the top end on my 2013 FXDBP, I must say with the Hillside heads @ 85 CC combustion chambers, 1.90/1.61 valves, porting .030" head gasket, stock pistons cylinders but I want with the woods TW 5-6 cams, this thing is amazing at any rpm... as long as your compression is at 10.2:1 you should be good for the 41* ivc of the 555's... One more thing, your gonna need a good tuner. I went with the Power Vision...
