Default Top-End video?

I'm about to pull my heads/cylinders. Will have my cylinders bored to fit the pistons I bought from Edelbrock to make a 95" engine. Will also get a port/polish job on my heads.
I've read the SM over/over as well as the Clymer manual, but still a little antsy about doing this job for the first time on a MC engine. I know car engines, but never did any engine work on MCs. Video on cam-chest was a great help for that job. Any videos available for this top-end work? Thanks

Fuel moto has a series on a top end build on a twin cam motor. Here's one in the series. If you've done any auto rebuilds, I think you'll find the twinkie motor is pretty friendly for the home mechanic to tear down and rebuild.

Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very much. I guess the stop-start of the videos is problem with my pc or my broadband speed?
Anyway, those chapter videos will be a great booster.
I appreciate the help! Thanks

Look at the thread I did a short while back - a few good video links, and some good tips and tricks were brought up. It helped me immensely, and may help you as well.
