We've done 8-10 of those, from 1318cc big-bores, to 1450cc strokers, (88ci)w/Falicon cranks.
Scorching power, once completed.
We use 1 particlar cam manufacturer, that re-grinds your cores, located on the west coast, for that application.
I will also add that those heads seem to flow very well, without the addition of larger valves.
If folks have never been inside these, it's best to have those that have, attend to what is needed, as they are a different breed of cat, no doubt.

Working on V rods is like working on Jap bikes Not hard everyone things when going out side a Harley Motor it's hard work. I am a shop that builds many different bikes from ZX14 to the Mighty Busa and many many Harleys, Its pretty easy. Anyone here that knows me and see's the bikes that come out of my shop no I dont play when it comes to power.
ex.. 100 hp 200 hp 300 hp 400 hp 500 hp 600 hp.. Pic your power.....

Good luck with who you pick... And like I said we can even build that motor around a turbo hows 180/200 hp for a V-rod.
