Well, you will get 100 different opinions here on engine combos.

I bought almost 2K worth of stuff for my bike, and was realizing the all the stuff i bought was incompatable in one way or another, I was getting nowhere fast untill I found HQ!

Doug is great to work with and will tell it to you how it is.

The OE cyilider heads are the way to go, they are an open canvas to a porting artist!

The Rev kit with HQ heads and cams will make your bike a street destroyer!

I am going to scrape the whole Edelbrock 95 kit and go with heads/cam from HQ, you guys got me convinced. Now I need the months to go by so I can get back and get it done! May do HQ's big bore but sounds like they can get me where I want without it. You guys helped alot, thanks!
T-Rob, nice bike! I already miss my train!

Hey, I saw your posts on the HQ teck site! I know you will be happy which ever way you go.

I have the sport/touring set-up on my 05 dyna with 95 in and the stg3 heads with the .575 cams.
Its a ball-buster!
Even if you do the heads and cams you will have a very powerful bike.

God bless, Duane

I figure on dropping close to $2500 on it with Doug and his fine group, hope that is enough to get what I need. I will be doing all the work my self except for possibly the fine tune on the EFI. May need some help on that. I have pretty much got the blessing from the wife, just need the next 5 months to go by so I can get back to the states and get it done. Thanks for all the input and help guys.
