True; it is a labor intensive modification but those that have done it really like the change.

Spoke with Scott today. He has my heads finished and they performed well. Should be on their long way home tomorrow.

Stick to the plan. Get the motor mods done and the motor broken in and tuned first.

Heads are back from their visit with Scott at Hillside! Can't wait to fire her up and ride.

Great work Scott, thanks for your help.

Interested to see the bump you get with the heads over just the 57 w/o.

I do not have a baseline so I've wondered what my numbers would be:

1. Before the swap with my breather, tuner, and exhaust.
2. With the 57H
3. With the heads

Wish I knew but I don't. I will only have the final numbers and hopefully someone will give me an estimate of the others. Hint hint

I am thinking 105HP/115TQ for final, if the compression is right and the tune is on. Round numbers, YMMV.
