Default 103 kit for 96"

Has anyone done the 103 engine upgrade on the 96"? I am interested in information on the upgrade and a realistic cost before I make the plunge. Is there a better way to go? '07 Road Glide bone stock. Thank's Britt

IIRC, the Stage I kit shouldn't cost much more than $1000 total, parts and labor. It's just jugs and pistons. The Stage II kit with cams will cost you more in parts and a few more hours labor, mine was about $1600 total. I think it was 10hrs labor at $60/hr.

Is 96 and 103 really that much of a noticiable difference?

I think there is a noticable difference I ride two up a lot and there is always plenty of power. It
was worth it to me.
