Just finished up my 131! RS468, Fueling race oil pump and cam plate, S&S anti-rotation cuffs, V&H power dual, V&H torque 450’s and FP3. I gotta get through the break in and then off to the dyno.
Curious as to your cam and tuner choice, just in case someone wanted to do something similar. Seems as if you may be leaving a little extra oomph on the table...

The tuner I already had from doing my head pipe and slip one. My choice for the cam is because I like the torque curve. I know Im leaving a little bit of power on the table but I should still get plenty more than I need orwould ever use. Knowing I have a lot more room under the heads makes me feel like it's a little more bullet proof. I'm hoping the tuner pans out. It's my tuners preferred tuner. I couldn't get a good base tune from V&H, it wouldn't stay running.
I was fine with that, my tuner not so much. He wanted 500 miles on it before putting the twist to it. He is the tuner, so I'll follow his lead. But I have seen builders go from two heats then straight to the dyno.
