I have Rhinehart's and I absolutely love them. I been thinking on building a chopper...maybe using an 88 if I can get my hands on one...may have to steal your setup.

Take my set up, its free. Just make sure the little bit of machine work is done perfect. I was told the 07 heads (07 and later) flow real good and don't need anything..Plus they have Bee hive springs.

Like I said, with the new air filter I have and the rhineharts, not sure if I lost HP or gained. Just seems to run the same..

I am going to get the heads that I have now re-worked. I just have to find a place. I've been contemplating Hillside, as they are who I hear most about, but I may try Hemrick Performance in Kernersville N.C. that Rick mentioned (post #322) as they are about 3.5 hours away from me and I can actually go and check the place out. Decisions, decisions...

I finally sent my ride to the dyno after a 103" 204 cams some head work .30 headgaskets and set the deck at .005. I post the sheet but it was just a AFR run and found that the throttle body is just too small as the mixture went real rich at 4000 like 10-1 I have since coeeceted the mixture and will run it again in the fall. With the hot and humid weather here it's not worth tunning it for now. Notice the torque curve and it runs out like it looks on the dyno.

Just set aside a time on Friday for a Dyno tune. I just installed a KnN, Mikuni carb, Andrews cams, ECU, on top of already 95" kit and VnH BRs.
I can't wait. Posted numbers to follow.
Dyno Dave in san Fernando Valley is gonna charge me $100. It's worth it, right?!?

A dyno tune for $100? Hang around and see how long he takes, and ask questions. It's not hard to tune it quickly for max power at WOT, but I'm sure you want rideability, and reasonable gas mileage at cruising throttle settings. If you're getting a full, incremental custom tune for $100, in my mind that's a bargain. In Australia, a local DynoJet operator charges around $450 for that, and that's about normal over here. That's why I've gone Tmax with auto-tune.
Good luck with it.
Cheers, Mike
Just noticed yours is a carby bike. Are you sure you're not just getting a dyno run to give you a power readout?
