Back in Iraq...
Back in Iraq... (big bore kit content)
...and contemplating what mods to do once I get back. I basically took a year off from doing anything to the sled, since February '09, and that was the SuperBrace. Even my sig pic isn't accurate, because the mirrors are black and it's missing the SB.
Anyway, definite performance mods are the HD comp sprocket and some kinda cams, whether Andrews, Wood, or Zippers.
I'd planned on a set of bolt-in cams because I didn't want the hassle of big bore, but am turning the idea over in my head for lack of better stuff to think about. Is the general consensus still that for the smaller end of the big bore spectrum, the HD 103" is still the one to go for?
And yes, I know there've been plenty of big bore threads in the past, but I figure I'm in Iraq and you're not, so you can cut me slack on this one.
Cosmetic fixes will be bars and solo seat (LePera BB or Sihouette), and need an attitude stick. Not too worried about those though.

I'll check out that S&S, their stuff is always pretty awesome...btw, I'm not even looking at the HD 110 kit...I've read too much bad stuff about heat, and too many good things about the 103".

I just saw a 106" S&S kit on ebay for around 600...
Cant remember exact price but thought it was good, with some head work, throw in some good cams and tuner. Might be worth it.

Rockon,
I have also heard good things about the S&S 106.
When was researching doing a big bore here locally one of the shops spoke very highly of it.
Cheers,
Tom
