will a S&S Carb or c/v add power?
#11
I like my bike loud and love the sound drag pipes make so ill never change pipes. I live near a biker gang and a freeway and thats all I hear is bikes run wide open all day long past my house. I ride with about 10 harleys all running wide open pipes even the bikes I see all over my area run st8 drags. Its funny to hear how much people hate drag pipes on here before this forum I never new there was other pipes on the market. I really dont care about the power loss from the pipes I just wanted to no when I change over to a s/s carb if i would pick up a few HP. The bike has great power getting a few more HP would allways be nice lol

i agree 110% with thesse guys. but if you are completely committed to drag pipes. i would recomend. having your local exhaust shop build you a 2 into 1. it'd cost you about 200.00 and itd be just as loud probably louder. i built mine, and my bikes the loudest in our crew. just have them keep the stock diameter down to the y pipe. then cone up to 3" and cone down the end to 2 1/2". no need for baffles because the exhaust feed creats its own back pressure.
p.s. i ride and 82 shovel with nothing more than a well tuned keihin, a crane fireball and my homemade pipe. i beat all my brothers' twin cams until about 60 and the start easing ahead.... barely.
