Need parts help.
OK guys, you know that I am about to do this 95" build on my bike. So far I have the 95" jugs and pistons (thanks phil), and I bought some cheap SE 204 cams. I wanted to go with the HW-0034, but need to save money where I can.
What I need to know is what else I need to install the jugs, pistons, and cams. I figure I need the top end gasket kit, PN# 17052-99B. I am sticking with my stock push rods (again, because of money). What I need to get PN for are the bearings I will need to install the SE 204 cams... along with anything else I will need. I want to gather all my parts together before I begin, and with the Holidays coming, I have to do it piece by piece.
So, what else do I need? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

RE: Need parts help.
Were it me I'd buy the S&S chain cam install kit for $75 which includes Timken inner bearings and outer bearings, gasket and bolts. I'd also buy the Cometic top end kit instead of HD's which you can get to include the Cometic .030 head gasket. If you do stick with the HD kit then at least get the Cometic .030 head gaskets for about $30. If you're replacing lifters you can save some cash and get some Gaterman lifters off ebay for $50 for the 4 as opposed to HD's for $120. They are "B" equivalents. I ran them in my 04

Travis,
I don't want to rub anything in, but maybe we can make a list while I'm putting mines together. TODAY

RE: Need parts help.
You may need to replace your chain guides. 20,000 miles seems the average life of those. I have seen some with less then 15,000 that were shot. I went the gear cam way.

Frist item is HD lifters. I did my 95" at 4200 miles and reused the stock lifters. Just pulled them at 104,000 miles to inspect the cam lobes to see if I could get 1 more year out of the motor. Except for light scoring on the main lifter body they looked like new.
The 39954-99A is primary cam drive tensioner.
The 39964-99A is secondary
The 39965-99 is chain guide
You will enjoy the 95"

Alright, I'll get the s & s cam install kit. Is there a PN for it, and who has the best price? Also, do you know the PN to order the Cometic top end kit for my '05 rk custom? And where to buy it? I had not planned on replacing the lifters, do you think I should? The bike has less than 10k miles on it? Now, if I go with the HD PN gasket kit, what PN for just the cometic .030 head gasket?
Thanks dawg, I really appreciate the help.
