BTW how are you liking your SE204 cams? I think cams are next on my list with a controller.
if i was going with any screaming eagle cam kit it would be the 204. There are quite a handful of aftermarket cams that will out perform but it is a good cam. I did my stage 2 and its a blast to ride! I opted for aftermarket, no regrets.

That sounds really nice! And it's kn a smaller sportster engine. It should sound much better on a 103 inch motor, or even on my 96 motor.

I'm gonna wait till I hear it on a softail before I make up my mind about it.

If someone else doesn't beat me to it, I'll try and get a decent clip on my 110 as soon as it's mounted.

So at 1000 miles, my breakout went in for service and also to get checked for a motor issue. Apparently the rear cylinder is toast. A valve got stuck and the oil was bleeding off preventing it from getting proper lubrication. The motor is in pieces at the shop waiting for new parts to come in. Since it's all apart and all under warranty, I decided to go ahead and drop some cash on getting the heads ported and polished, new cams. They said they need to put in adjustable push rods due to clearing issues when they raise the compression. As of right now, I'm going with the S&S 510C cams. Anybody have any experience with these? Are they good to go or should I be getting a different cam? I want more power but I'm mainly looking to bump up the torque.

Imo since you are porting and polishing the heads, if it were me id look at some different cams. I went with the s and s mr103 cams in chain drive, adj pushrods and s and s lifters. You can probably just use the stock lifters as they are new. Take a look at my sheet and keep in mind this is with stock compression, and no headwork.I believe all three cams i will suggest to you will really pop with 10.1 compression and headwork. Do some research before you leap. Here are a two others that will work....TMAN 555 torqster, andrews 57h,
