Well, ya know I was just making the comment, because pretty much everybody was leading you away from the 211. But because they are on your benchtop you want to use them. You're just trying to get someone to tell you to use them so you can feel good about using the wrong cam for your setup.
If I were doing it step by step, I would do this:
1]. Good EFI tuner.
2]. 95" big bore kit.
3]. Head work.
4]. Andrews 37H cam.
Also good to do, would be the crank truing and welding, timken bearing conversion and the SE compensator. The lower end of these motors is not as strong as people think.
When I do my motor build, the bottom end is where I'm starting.
redrubicon has a strong motor, both in power and because he did the bottom end work, in longevity.

I eat 96"s with stage one all day, and have outrun a road king with a 103" build. No dyno numbers or drag times. Be prepared to spend more money on rear tires

i would get all my parts lined up,get everything you need for your build,gaskets,parts,gaskets,...research everything,get a manual,read it alot.....there is a site called harley hogs lair,he shows how to put on a big bore kit,95",do all the research you can...get your build together,and do it all at one time......you will notice a bigger difference then....plus you won't have to go into the motor but once.......that will save you a lil $ .
