Don't have the numbers in front of me but, the stock 103 vs. high out put 103s are different.

Oopsy... Misread OPs post. Thought it was cams question.

long haul bike, not a red light racer. i'm keeping it simple. like i said, if it makes me unhappy, i'll send you guys a set of heads to work over. i was plenty happy with the stock 103. i ride my sportster more than i ride the dyna

On heads... Just got off the phone with s&s, they said porting or going with the 89cc super stocks and drop to a .030 head gasket are my best bets. They said 79cc was too high a compression for street gas. Also said if i get porting or larger heads, i need to go with a 58mm TB too, at some point.

58mm needs special intakes, yes?
