Most fuel moto builds don't number out
exactly like their website dyno charts. Keep that in mind

I'm well aware of that. If I were running such a company I think I would cherrypick the best results to show my customers as well. Those charts may well be the result of more extensive dyno tuning than many of us could afford. With that said, I'm sure the charts they have on their website show results that are well within the realm of possiblilty.

Bill, my recipe included TMan 590 cams on a 107" 2011 FLH. I used the stock throttle body and it was tuned by Lonewolf and it turned out great. The heads were entry level ones massaged by Don Dorfman
124tq
121 hp.
I'd recommend building a bottom end first. Mine quickly failed at those power levels.

remember,just because you have 10.5-1 pistons,whatever headwork you choose must cc to the amount to give a actual 10.5-1 (or whatever you are looking for),and I wouldn't go off ANYONES advertised dyno charts,

That look to be about where i wanna be, 110-115 HP and 120 Torque, since mine is a 07 fxstc i believe it has the small 3.9 injectors... so i think i will get a 50 mm Screaming Eagle throttle body and i think id be good, just need to figure out a reputable head porter that wont break the bank.
