Level of headwork?
Hi all, I'm in the midst of doing a 106" bb on my ultra along with tw-555 cams. I'm contemplating headwork but I am unsure of what level to take it to. I have no experience with headwork but after doing lots of reading there appears to be many different options. I don't normally ride in the high rpm's which leads me to believe a full cnc port & polish with bigger valves would be overkill for me...... I checked out big boyz and they do street porting which sounds like it would suit my riding style. Just wondering if anyone who has experience with this can chime in, I do plan on calling Bean tomorrow. I just think spending $1000 on headwork that will probably never be utilized may be a waste of money??

Bean did his street port on my heads when I went 103", bike runs good, no complaints!

I have an 04 flhtc with Andrews 26 cams ,mikuni carb 95 in build with 030 head gaskets and I had a Street porting job done on my 06 heads. In my opinion ,well worth it,cost me $500,done locally.Bike was Dynoed with 92 Hp and get this 112 ft lbs of torque.A few of my pals have the same build without head work and have around 8 to 10 less ft lbs of torque.At the time of Dyno I had true duals with Screamin Eagle slipons,I now run Rinehart slipons and its even ballsier.
