Cams and Heads on a 96"

RE: Cams and Heads on a 96"
DONE, I have the 96 upgraded with SE MCR heads w/ .030 cometic gasket, roller rockers, adj. pushrods, Woods TW-7H cams w/ .575 lift & 240 duration, and ThunderMax Auto tuner.
The bike pulls like a raped ape and hits 100mph a little too quickly in 5th. I haven't opened it up hard yet, I want to break-in easy then, see what it really will do. No dyno runs since I have the Auto-tuner, no need. I can say after riding a 103, this bike hits and pulls harder. I will probly set up some time with my shops dyno later, to adjust the timing curve for these cams, and I need to adjust the pushrods another 1/2 turn to take out a little valve train noise from the 2700 to 3400 rpm range. There seems to be a little slop.
I am very happy with thefeel of the bike. Now, to get the 150 on the back end and I will be good to go.

It is amazing the power you CAN get out of a 96 for a little less cabbage. I will save the 103 for later when I wear out the new top end I already paid for personally. I have done less to mine then you havehaddoneand I know how well it runs!
I am hoping some will consider the fact that a 103 is not always needed to get big performance gains. But does have its place in theall you can get category. The 96s can be made to run surprisinglyhard!

tx_rg: What was the cost of the parts? I ask because the only SE MCR heads I saw in the '08 SE parts catalog are listed at $949.95; SE roller rockers are $469.95; compression releases (which are machined into the MCR heads) are $84.95.
Glad you are pleased with the outcome.

RE: Cams and Heads on a 96"
Just looked online at the SE MCR heads. So these sound like the old SE Performance heads renamed to designate they are ready for Mechanical Compression Releases. I didn't see any other spec differences. Is this right?
TX_RG - I'm sure we would all be very curious to see the dyno chart for this. On paper it looks like a very potent combo with good bang for the buck. Especially if you can pick up a deal on the heads.
