Thanks CW,
My thoughts exactly for the original build, but had a few people confirm the 26's should be good. Now with the builder suggesting the larger build (see last post) he strongly recommends the TW50/55 or (after some machine work on the inner bearing holes) the HQ540 cam that comes with the 107" kit.
My only other worry is tuning. He only uses a Digital Link and will not touch anything else. Not a problem, just what to keep my options open. I guess once its tuned thats it, right! Just tune and forget.
Having to learn lots here as big builds aren't that common in these parts.
Anyone using the 107" in a Softail?
Rob.

Don't know what the mods you plan on cost in the UK, but I would think you'ld be better off trading up for something a little newer. It ain't just the cost, it's the little problems & hassles that pop up along the way in a drastic rebuild such as what you're planning.
Trade for something new & be done with it.
