Cool S&S upgrade.

Just bought S&S 79cc heads for my 2011 96" fatboy. also going with S&S 570 ez start cams. .040 cometic head gasket will put me at 9.98:1 static compression acording to Big Boyz calculator. I have an S&S stealth air cleaner with the 1" taller element. se adjustable pushrods, se tappets and se roller rockers. Tuning with a pc 5. Now the million dollar question, will I hit 100/100? comments....Also using a Bassani road rage 2 B 1 2 into 1 with a 2 1/4" quiet baffle.

I believe you will. I stayed with the 96" but had my heads ported and polished and went with CR575 cams and had it dyno tuned. I ended up at 95/110. I know my 2 into 2 Short Shots hurt me a little but I'm very happy with it.

I am running se 204s right now. Awsome cam. I am going to the 570 to take advantage of the extra lift that the heads are capable of. I have read a lot of good things about the 510 and the 570.

A .030 gasket would put me at 10.18:1. 193 cold cranking. Is this too much for the 570? I want my bike to still be street friendly.
