Project '72
Seeing all these other build threads make me want mine to start even faster then before. I am enlisting in your[IMG help with this, this will be my first but definitely not my last build.
I have a start on getting motor parts ordered. Here are some pictures as to where I am starting from.

For a 72 you would need a head with a 66 date code. If you use a head later than 74 you will have one long reach and one short reach plug. Check the head you have to see if it has a 66 right above the spark plug on the fin.

Thanks for the info, john I will get back to you on the head, and FilthyLucre thanks for that info I'll have to look at the front and see.
Anyone have an old rear fender they would like to donate to a good first project?

It looks like a stock frame with the rear tank mount and seat bar support removed. The VIN on the frame should be the same as the motor 2AxxxxxH2 for a 72FLH.
