Give Truett & Osborn a call, dunno if they do heads too but they can definitely recommend a good place if not. And they are in Wichita.

Not Oklahoma but my opinion these guys are the best of the best and worth every dollar . I just got back my Stage 4 heads for my 107 build on my bagger . I’ll send them my heads when I do my 04 Duce next

Hillside cycle and vtwin performance get mail delivered to them every day and there's a reason why that mail is chock full of harley heads. Don't limit yourself to who's close just because they're close. If there's a good option near you then by all means go there but the two I mentioned are two of the best

Just south of Kansas City is a shop called Powerhouse Cycle & Dyno... I met the owner, Joe Lyons, several years ago at a DynoJet tuning class. He is extremely knowledgeable. He could have taught the class. At that time he worked at an HD Dealership. He has since started this shop, and I have heard some good reviews...

Joe's special talent is tuning, and his shop does performance engine builds... I don't know if he does any of his own machining, but if he doesn't, he would certainly know of a good shop that supplies his porting and machining services...

But as Screamin Beagle said, don't be afraid to mail out your heads... There are several very talented, experienced shops across the country that would do an great job on Harley heads...

I live in SoCal, but am about to send my pistons and heads to HD Street Performance in Washington....

I had my 06 Deluxe Heads - Shaved (raised compression), Ported, Polished, CCd and also had Compression Releases installed.
Went 95 as well. All this work was based on CAMS I installed, So it's very important to speak to the shop.

I used http://www.bigboyzheadporting.com/

Did a great job.
