Very sound advise!
Read about how the Baker 7-speed gives you lower gears in 1st 5 gears and higher for highway in last 2 gears. Best of both worlds and can easily handle your power, where the HD will definitely launch if ya ride hard at all.
Has any one seen a 107 stage 4 to 114 with a wood 408 cam compared to a 107 to 128 with the wood 408? And is the 107 stage 4 114 higher compression than the stock 114?

Maybe I can answer the last part - The 114 is a 10.5:1 and my Stage 3 107 to 114 is a 11:1. I'm pretty positive the 107 to 114 Stage 4 are also 11:1.
The top one is with a Bassani 2-1 Road Rage long exhaust, Zippers Red Shift 468 cam and kit provided by Fuel Moto. This was put on a dyno for numbers only, never professionally dyno tuned. And the operator forgot or didn't know how to produce A/F ratio.
The bottom one was professionally tuned after installing Bassani 33" True Dual Fishtails with baffles in mufflers. The dyno tech spent a fair amount of time dialing in the A/F ratio to almost utter perfection IMHO. This little FLDE runs much better and will haul *** on down the road with the best of them. So screw the numbers, man. Its all about the overall tuning and rideabilty.
Hey there, I am going with the 131 as we speak. was the CR512 drop in? or did you have to change springs or do valve work to make it happy?
Welcome to HDForums. Don't know what the specs are for that cam, but I presume it's higher lift vs stock, and if so, if it were me, I'd put in higher quality springs, but what do I know?
Stock cam specs are here, as are some others. CR-512 is listed here, no specs, but if you are planning a 131 build, I would assume better springs are part of it, if not, I'd make it so.

I am not sure why the companies that make these cams, make it so difficult to find the actual specs. Even CR's website never mentions specs. Also, going by Cycle Rama's other cam labeling, the numbers would be valve lift if they followed suit. IE; .512 valve lift = hi-lift springs needed
