I'm attaching an estimate for a 103 build. I would appreciate if anyone could tell me if it looks right? It looks like I am getting double-charged for the cam.

I apologize. I know it's small. The first page has the cam and second page has a gear drive. Is that something separate that does not come with the gear drive cam?

No. The one is for the gears and the other is for the .575 cams. Not trying to open up a can O worms here, but I will.Why would you buy them heads that have the notorious SE waytoo big valves in theheads,when you could get a Kick AZZ set from HQ for about the same price and run circles around them SE heads? This is just my opinion. And that is a ton of money to spend for 103" [

It does seem awfully pricey. What would you suggest besides the HQ heads or a 103. I don't want to get too radical. I ride her everyday and I would eventually like to take long trips.

I have had mix and match parts is parts motors in the past. For everyday and for long trips.
All I can really say is what has happened to me on more than once.
While on the road, HD shops really don't know what to do for a mixed bag o'parts.
Hard enough to find a dependable shop to touch your bike.
I have a 1997 Heritage Springer mix and match, love it, hard to get HD and after market add on parts to fit sometimes too.
I also have a 2003 Ultra with the 103 kit, pretty basic motor with HD screamin Eagle parts, lots of chrome HD, Kury and othername brands as well asrineharts true duals.
I love to ride long distance and I do. I've broke down with my Ultra and haven't had a problem getting a HD shop to work on it. I'm national HOG member with the service warranty andthe tow package as well as AAA RV Plus.
I must say that the Head Quarters tip given above is a good tip. They make and machine Top Quality parts and will put together for you a kit to fit your liking as well as your wallet. The only bad point is, if you like to go on road trips, it's hard to find a shop that will work on your bike. Privately owned shops on the road are a real guess and go. Some are truly amazingly honest and great machanics while other are just waiting for you to come along.

Don't Forget,Since Your gonna go with the big heads, Change your FI to the 50mm.....You'll only run half of What the motor is capable of without it.....Don't get me wrong, It'll still run good, But not to full potential....No sense of spending 4k on a motor, And only useing $2500 of it 
...
Buddy just built the same motor, And has the same anount into it..
