diamond heads
has enybody had there motor cut? thinking of possibly doing it I have my original 88" jugs and a frend has a set of heads, thinking of getting cylenders punched out to match my 95" and reworking heads porting, and oversize valves then sending them to get cut so I have no down time while I send them off. just wondering if any one has and if they would do it again?

The cut exposes more surface to the air.
Now that I look at that line, it almost looks like fins for the fins.
Hope this helps.

RE: diamond heads
My buddy did it to his Fatboy while in the process of doing the big bore kit as well...looks awesome. I believe it's a shop in Las Vegas that patented it & they do most of the diamond cut motors that you see out there.
