RE: Question for carb guys...More suggestions...what do you think?
ORIGINAL: jmetro
honestly, if your doing cams, heads, etc... why not just pull the juggs and go 95"?? very little extra expense, you won't have to re cam when you do decide to do the 95, (there are better cams for the 95, that won't work too well on an 88) and the carb will run better as well.
Just my opinion, but why do everything but the 95"?? there is no replacement for displacement.
and i would def go with gear drive. or every 30K miles you'll have to get in there and change out the tensioners........... all harleys before the twin cam were gear drive, why they changed it, who knows.

ummmmmm............ the 95" conversion is much more expensive if you buy new cyls... you can just buy 95" pistons and have the original cyls bored out. cost of pistons and machine work, no more than 400-600 this is a HIGH estimate.(depending on the pistons you get).
