Engine upgrade
I have a 2004 Electra Glide Classic that I had upgraded a few years ago. HD did the upgrade and installed race tuner, Screaming Eagle heads, 251 cam, and more. I already had Rhinehart duel exhaust. I still do not feel like I'm getting everything that I should from the engine and on top of that has much more top noise than before. I would like to quiten it down some (top end) and upgrade to maybe a 103, 107 or 110. I want more take off and top end speed & power. Any suggestions? Also any suggestions on a good "motor" guy around or close to Atlanta or Cumming, Swannee, Georgia area that I could get to do the work?

one of the best motor guys around Atlanta is Kevin Baxter, he does a lot of HQs products but can do custom builds--call him 678-939-8029 -- he has built 4 motors for me and not one issue a little costly but you want it done correctly the first time

Mr. Kevin Baxter, of now "Baxter's Garage" Lawerenceville GA, is no longer "Pro-Twin Performance", and is no longer hooked in with HQ, as per MANY conversations, and several top-ends, with us.
We have a very professional relationship with him, and he is a true gentleman.
Tell him we sent you in his direction, as well.

There are almost limitless options in the H-D world. How much did you want to spend?

Don't know how far they are from you but Tman Performance is in NC. They are extremely well regarded in the HD performance world. Even if it took you a weekend trip to get your bike there it would be well worth it. Your other option would be to find a competent indy to pull your parts, send them out and install when returned. If you go that route your options open up to lots of shops. R+R, Hyperformance,Dewey's, Hillside, Dan Vance, Wfo,prodrag, Veetwin,GMR, the list goes on and on and for any I forgot forgive me. Check out some of these outfits websites. They can all set u up with whatever you need, mild to wild.
