Default Performance build finished

Hello all I havent posted in a long time just got my bike back yesterday. I had a build installed with heads and cams supplyed by T-man performance.I looked at gmr and HQ but my local builder wanted to go withT-man says he liked there stuff the best. I installed ported heads, 600 lift 240 duration gear cams, (almost same profile as tw6h) 10.5 to 1 pistons. I already had a pcIII and VH true duels and it was already 95".I rode about 75 miles yesterday and the bike pulls pretty strong off the bottom but I havent had it Dyno'd yet.We put a rich break in mode in the pc and I've got my name on a listfor a sert but after reading all the post about theDDT I may go that way,I also think everyones talked me in to changing to2in1 exhaust (this forum is expensive) probably DD fat cats.The jury is still out on the build but I'll keep everyone informed after it gets finished. (sorry about not having pics but I can't figure out how to do it but a freind isgoing to show me how pretty soon)
