Finished up the V Twin mfg 95" kit, SE 211 cams, SE pushrods, and SE high flow oil pump and cam plate. Had it dyno tuned yesterday with a new PCB. I figured we would get into the 90s with it, but never thought we would break 100. This thing is like a whole different bike!! It pulls like a freight train now.
Those are some pretty good numbers for stock heads, I think. I'm only aiming for 9.5:1, S&S 570 cams, but have ported heads. I hope I get similar numbers.
Thanks. I was super happy with the numbers. I was hoping to get into the 90s, would have never guessed to break 100. I really wish that I had a baseline before the motor work, but I was too cheap to pay for 2 dynos. Lol. Mech that did the work said I probly started around 65 HP. All in all, those numbers don't mean a hill of beans. It's when you twist that wick and feel that power, now that's where it's at.
Yeah. I cant wait to get this back on the road. Numbers are great for bragging, but putting some more power down is the ultimate goal. It sure will be a big step up from just exhaust, carb tuning, and air cleaner.

The 570's really shine at 10.0-10.2:1. We are presently putting together a 107" with headwork, 570's, Big Sucker and a Fat Cat on a customers '09 FLSTC. I will post pics and the dyno chart after we get it done. I expect to see 105+ hp and 110+ torque with a very streetable and reliable package.
