- a stage 2 upgrade from FM (Woods WM8-22X cam) on a 107 M8 (116TQ, 108HP)

My plan is to wait for my 2 year warranty to expire (June 2019) and ride my bike to FM so they can do a stage 2 with tune.
This is my plan as well. Wait until my 2 year warranty is done. If I were to pull the trigger now, I'd go with the 117ci core exchange, 460cam with new lifters/rods, PV tuner and 2-1-2 Jackpot headers. Should put me in the 130s tq with the recommended injectors and breather. If the CnC heads are worth the $1300 for the performance, I may do that too.

I got a buddy that did a 120 crate twinkie from MoCo. He's gonna cry when my M8 SMOKES him! Not to mention, I'll have a few thousand less invested in my build than what he spent too...

I think he was referring to the 114 in the softail with the dual balancers. Which FM doesn't currently offer anything for at the moment.

*edited* I stand corrected, apparently they now offer a 117 kit for the 114's with more planned offerings available soon....

You could of course take it to FM, or do it yourself, or any qualified shop could take care of the install.

Where do you live? Someone on this forum can likely recommend a shop in your area.

We can do a build of this nature in just over 1 day. Drop the bike off at 9:00 AM and it will be ready the next day by 11:00. We also have a Fuel Moto group rate at Country Inn & Suites right down the road.

Except for my Jackpot 2 into 1, I have these exact parts sitting in my den. Can't hardly wait.
