Well, it sounds like NW Harley is the place. If any of you have had builds done with them, can you tell me what you went with and the cost?? Thanks a lot!!

If your interested in a top-notch HD mechanic I would talk to Doug at Emerald City HD. He just did the bottom end in my 96 when the crank scissored & he's a great mechanic. I know if & when I ever go to a 103 he will be my mechanic of choice.

Were are you located? Thunder Valley Cycles in Renton is the best in the state in my opinion. Its a Low key no frills shop but he fixed my bike when the dealer couldn't. He has been building engines and dyno tuning for years.... do you really want to take it to a dealer that just got a shiny new dyno and would like to learn tow to do it on your bike? Everyone in this area brings there bikes to him. The Stealer will never see my bike again!
