Harley upgraded the oil pump in 07-up engines when they changed the cam chain tensioners to hydraulic. That's ridiculous.

you could do the cam swap yourself then bring it in for the other installs and the dyno time...

would save you X hours in labor and might bring that price down to somethin you can swing.

i'd feel more comfortable getting the bike tuned on the dyno than running a canned map when it comes to doing any engine upgrades.

if i'm going to spend X to make my bike run better, it's worth it for me to spend X+300 to make sure it runs right...

+ 06 dyna engines, you can do the clutch spring for less than $50.00

The Woods TW5-6 has .575 lift with a 37* intake valve close. It's worth taking a look at.
