I've also been told that the Mikuni will make the bike feel more responsive as well, any thoughts on this??

Yes, it gives a more immediate response than the CV, in my experience. I had a Mikuni and swapped it for a CV on an otherwise stock motor (with pipes and aircleaner). But...

I would agree with Doug S if I hadn't already had the Mikuni.

The SE ignition module made a big difference on my bike over the stock one. If I had to GUESS, I would GUESS that the difference in the part numbers you mention, with one being for a FLHT and the other not, are the length of the wires running down to the pickup. The FLHT's of the era needed a longer wire to the plug than the other bikes. The MoCo actually sold a harness extender to put the shorter wired SE modules on a FLHT (off road use only, of course, with your full dress touring bike.)

My first guess would be that there may be a connector difference.. My '94 WG has a 7 pin connector on the module, the newer ones came with 8 pin's.. I dont remember the breakoff, but that's something to keep in mind..
Brothers,
Thanks for all of you great thoughts and input.
Pretty much thought the Cam is the best "bang for your buck"
Now the big question - can anyome recomend a good tuner in the UK that could fit a cam and also tune the CV carb??
(Ideally with a Dyno)

You're not far away from Matts Machine Shop, near Cardiff. Matt supplied and installed my S&S 107" engine and I can heartily recommend him. He also has a shop in England which may be closer to you, but I'm not sure exactly where. He's 250 miles from me, so on your doorstep!

I don't move too quick with these things, but I'll let you know how I get on.
