So now that all the subject matter experts are paying attention to this thread, let me go off topic (sort of) and pose this question. Assuming I build a 107. I know to get the most out of it Im going to have to ditch the V&H short shots I have on and go with a grown up 2 into 1 system. And I know one of the best systems out there is the D&D. Problem is, and no offense guys, I hate the looks of the blacked out version and chrome isnt an option. How much do you guys think I will be giving up by going with a Rhinehart 2 into 1 instead? Noticeable or should I do what I want and not worry about it?
The Rinehart 2:1 is a nice piece. Had one on an '04 V-rod with great mid and upper rpm performance although it did have the tq dip around 3K.
Another pipe to consider is the V&H Big Radius 2:1. I've got one on my '07 FXDWG and it really runs well. Good low end, no tq dip at all, great looks and sound also. Just a thought.
No need to add S&S crank. Just send your off to Hoban/Darkhorse. It's a little less expensive. I haven't seen a 107" in the 120/120 range. Maybe 105/120-125ish. I just don't think you'll see that kind of hp from a 107". It's a crap shoot....Personally, I wouldn't pull the bottom end apart for a 107". If I split cases, I'm going to build a 117".......125/125
JD's tuned a 103" of ours(in service for 4 years prior) that rolled 119 square SAE, recently, FWIW.

Scott, what stage Hillside heads and which cam did you use in that 103".
I was going to bump from 103" to your 107" kit, your Stage 2 work on my heads and keep my Woods 6 in place. Would Stage 3 headwork on my 103"yield similar results as a 107" with Stage 2? Might be a tough question but I'm wondering. Thanks.

No it's not stock, do you think this voids the warranty??
