I had Fueling 574's in my Road Glide(96 ci)and they really brought that engine to life. My buddy put 585's in his Road Glide(another 96 ci)and he loves them. Both cams have a good sound to them. Getting ready to put the 585's in my 14 Street Glide.

Set it up this morning, bike goes in 06/11 and he will have it back to me by 06/19. S&s gear drive 570's, new lifter and push rods installed $1400. I will talk to him about the head gasket change when i drop it off.

How much difference does the gasket change help? Just trying to decide if its worth doing. Also, at what point are compression releases needed? I know i wouldnt need them with my set up
