Default So after 4 years...


I finally got back to it and got it built.

Specs:
Originally an 88ci 2003 dyna engine, it's now a .010 over 110ci with 10.75:1 CR
S&S items: flywheels (welded). 'G' carb, 625g easy start cams, adjustable push rods, roller rockers and lifters.
Heads are ported and polished, as is the S&S intake manifold.
Cylinders and heads both have diamond cut edges, timken bearing and sleeve conversion, etc

Still to order: Barnett Scorpion clutch (unless you guys have better suggestions), Daytona Twin Tec ignition, misc gaskets (primary set) and bolts, and a decision...

Stick with the V&H Big Radius (love the look) or go to something like a thunderheader (don't like the look as much but I do like the performance claims). Here's how it looked before tear down:


Thoughts on the build and other suggestions/ideas?

Looks nice..even before the tear down...should be a screamer for sure now.

Just curious...is that your street ride?

You gotta lot of bucks there.....be careful.

I'd put it back together and get that sucker on the road after 4 years of hibernation! change the small stuff like exhaust later on after you put some miles on it!

go supertrapp. being able to tune it you'll get best results. if not that, go Thunderheader. great for torque. just my 2 cents.

Should be a sweet ride! Get the pipes you want, they are the most important mod for the look you want to have. Need pics of the new improved motor in the frame!
