I got tired of the jam nut on my Heritage brake pedal backing off allowing the pedal to rattle to beat the band. So I ground down two regular 7/16X20 nuts so both would fit on the shaft and locked them bitches down. No mo rattles.
But after looking at the picture I think tomorrow I'll replace the outer nut with a chrome acorn nut. That'll look much better.
Can you describe the process of adding these Dwayne? Do you first remove the stock baffles? And do these act as a butterfly valve of sorts, to allow more or less flow depending on the position? You didn't need a re-map?
Dwayne won't be back at the computer til Monday....I reckon he'll be riding all weekend.
No remap needed, still stock A/C, but even with a free flowing A/C, a new map will help it run even better, but it also helps bone stock run even better, but is not needed like on the Twin Cams....see info on M8 AFR at this LINK.
Here is a video of another M8 Softail we did a couple of months ago.
Re-installed the bags I just got back from Boss Bags. $250.00 well spent. They look and feel like leather covered hard bags now.
Then I took a ride up to Pulaski TN to get a Powerball ticket, since the governor says we can’t buy them here in Alabama. If I win the big prize, I’m thinking about getting some sweet LED turn signals.

Hey Man, how's it going? Looks like 2 nuts are better than 1....
