If I remember correctly it was 450 for my cylinders 50 for the pistons fitted in the cylinder so all you have to do is mount jugs and pistons to connecting rod. He had told me he was coming out with the 107 set. For the 96in twin cam that cam out afther 07 I have 06 03 01 twincam a so no luck for me.

I have talked to Jim on phone - he is very helpful and knowledgeable. I was having a problem and thought about just getting his 98" BB kit, but ended up cc'ing and redecking the heads. Jim spent a lot of time talking to me and seemed to know his $hit. If I were going to do another build, I would strongly consider using his services. Call him and discuss what you want - you will make your own decision. He also offers to set your ring gap, so your install is simple.
