Default Head-Quarters Warning

Just finished the install of HQ heads, HQ575 cams, 10.5 comp in an 07 Ultra bored out to 103. Went with the aggressive break-in thathas been linked to in this forum. This let me get on the throttle aquicker than the conservative way. NowI have a problem....all myshirt sleeves are gonna be too short!This thing will stretch your arms out. Doug should include a warning with his products.I'll get the dyno up as soon as it is tuned.I havent smiled like this since I left my ex.

Yea, I did the work myself. Suprisingly, it cranked right up.The problems in build were mostly from the service manual being a little vague. The members and posts in this forum were invaluable and better than the manual. The bike has Fatcats 2-1(standard) with ghost and a PC 111 from FuelMoto. I didnt use themap Jamie loaded though. Got one I thought might be closer and used it with Dougs Ignition Tables. Still will have to be tuned to get it right but it has to be close.Sure took the"dog" out ofstock.
