Sorry I didn't introduce myself, my name is Ben I live in France, Normandy, I am restoring a chopper based on 1200 flhs from 1977, I changed one of the two cylinder heads (the other was dead) for a 79 cylinder head and I am looking for valve stem seals for the guide model in the photo, I cannot find the model of the valve guides (maybe they were only fitted a few years). THANKS
We balanced the crankshaft to the micron (photo of the crankshaft before balancing), changed the crankshaft bristles for jims, performance crankshaft bearings, we installed a high flow S&S oil pump, increased the size of the oil ducts in the crankcase engine, machined the cylinder heads to fit two spark plugs per cylinder.
