Default RE: Adding cubes to engine.

Can you provide some details on the kit? I'm tracking with the cam but who ports the heads, etc...?
ORIGINAL: HDWRENCH

120+ heck I should have him do all my builds!!! Sounds too good to be true, there are 95 that make that but not with that cam. Normal numbers for a 95 with decent head work and a 37 are 95/95 on a avarage day. There are better numbers and worse but you are hard pressed to tell the difference between 96 and 100 on tq or hp.

I keep saying this and the real story is in the low rpm range and look at the tq there peak numbers mean nothing you are at the peak rpm for a very short time but spend most of your time in the 1800-3500 range look there for tq = real world use. Unless of course you are building a drag bike for the track then look at the peak numbers.


My kits make in the mid 90's on both with a easy going laid back set up. With a 98 inch kit the tq comes on strong from the bottom end and pulls nicely all the way through.

Mac WHere you at, you have this kit tell them how it runs. Lets keep it under a 110 ok LOL
