no, due to my disability i am unable to do all of the work required, but my indy is super cool and let me helped out as much as i could. yeah, my indy checked out everything so as to minimize the possibilities of problems in the future. here are a couple pics from the job...note the gear drive as well...

o/d...I'm doing the same work as you in about 3 weeks and this is a link to the best price I could find for that Andrews 26A cam which I'm going to be using as well.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ANDRE...item1c1006ec92

I'm going to use a cometic gasket/o-ring kit available at www.cometic.com.

Btw, I have a '06 FXST, the cam on that site goes for 225.95 with free shipping.

It all depends on your riding style and what kind a performance your looking for. Do you want lowend torque or topend perfomance.

best price i've found on andrews cams is at jirehcycles.com 26's are $214.95, 21's- $199.95, 37's- $204.95 free shipping over $75.00. quick delivery. shitty website. i've got the printed catalog, much better. good prices on cometic gasket sets as well. it's the FIRST catalog i open when "going shopping". steve
