Default Swapping 103" tope end to my Wide Glide

Ok, so my 110" bolt on kit for my 2014 SGS arrives Wednesday. I want to put the top end on to my 2010 Wide Glide. The top end currently has 10k miles on it and going onto the 5200 mile WG.

Other than new gaskets, should I replace anything like the rings? I know my 103" has ACR's but dont think the WG has them. Any advice?

Some will say not to bother changing rings with that kind of mileage but I would while it's all apart. As for no acrs, no big deal unless you're changing to cams that would require it. If that's the case use the s&s ezy start cams and then no need for compression releases

heads are the same besides acr unless Rushmore has bigger intake and valves which I don't believe they do. So unless you plan on doing the bottom end, leave it be. If you do the bottom end don't waste the time without going 107.
