Default Evo my M8?

Ok, tossing money aside, I have a 2019 Road King M8-107 with 53000 miles on it
what I’d like to discuss here is the possibility of taking my 107, adding a S&S 124 kit, change it over to a gear driven cam setup after welding the crank and getting that pesky run-out dialed in, throw in some timkin crank bearings…. Simply taking everything good about the trusty evo and making a sweet marriage with my M8? Yes, I know that it’s going to be a pricey venture for sure…. That being said, ideas please along with anything else you might do to make this “dream build” better. TIA

darkhorse motor co can set you up with that.

if you want to go a step further, there is now a company making a magneto ignition system for the M8 and another company making a kit to run a carburetor. now youre running old school
