Looking at doing some motor work this winter, and would like some input. Budget is limited, so looking for best bang for the buck.
Bike is 2012 Limited, it has V&H power duals with cobra 4 1/2" slip ons, screamin eagle breather, and Andrews 48 cams. All of my riding is 1 up.
Looking to hear what others have done and how they like the results?
Have been thinking about going to a D&D ( had one on last bike)
107 kit?
Headwork and use my existing cams?
Headwork, and new cams?
Give me your thoughts on best bang for the buck!
Thanks

 

A 2 into 1 pipe will for sure help, and I would do some head work to get the most out of the cams you already have. I have a 14 fatboy and am doing a 2 into 1 from RBracing and cams this winter. I had a chance to look at some stock heads on sat. And from what the intake ports look like I can see why port work is a big plus.

 

That 48 in that 103" if tuned correctly is quite a powerful set-up.
In order to jump the power up to allow you to say, "Boy, this runs really good, now", cams/headwork, and a piston with a dome/machined valve reliefs(or just bore to 107"?).
Happy to help.
Scott

 

if you like the power range of the 48`s,a nice low-mid TQ build is:
107" conversion
S&S .583 cams
touring headwork set @ 9.8-1
