Default 97" Upgrade

Just took my baby in for a 97 " upgrade at Skip's Custom Cycle Speed Shop in Winchester, VA. I upgraded the Stage 2 a few years back with some S&S 510g cams, V&H Monster Ovals and SSCC Pro Tuner. The Dyno showed an increase from stock to 84hp and 97tq.

We shall see what the 97" brings!! I cannot wait.

Excellent numbers man. Hope I can get something similar to that out of my 98" build. What heads are you running on your setup?
