Hell, you can do it, it is not rocket science and you did your last build, so go for it! Big plus is that you have got a close local shop that if needed can give you a hand and I am sure Steve @GMR will help you as well as the rest of us.

Have fun!

Thanks Dalton. I figured that it wouldn't be more difficult than what I have already done. The current build turned out pretty good with no issues during assembly. Looks like I will go this route. So to all of the nasayers, the tools aren't for sale. [:-]

Dive in! It is no more difficult than any other Harley motor.My last two builds a 124" Evo and a 155" TwinCam,were no problem at all.Both have S&S lifters which are adjusted different than any others I have done.Other than that just make sure the clearances are all on the money and enjoy!
