Axtell Performance has a bolt on 107 kit no cam but you can run any cam that you want..have your heads p&p and with a good exhaust that thing should be a stump puller....

I have the 103 Big Bore Kit on my '08 Road Glide and can really feel the additional torque, not so much the horsepower. This is with the stock cams; I understand that different cams is what really opens the kit up. Where I notice the additional torque is when riding two-up; the additional weight of my wife (careful!) would normally be very noticeable with the 96 inch stock motor, but the additional torque of the 103 inch kit makes the additional weight meaningless. Since you already have the air intake and the SERT, it seems like an aftermarket kit might save you some money unless your HD dealer will price the components to you individually.

Get your dyno tune and forget the 103 unless you're a speed demon. The dyno tune will make such a differance you won't believe it.

I did the Cams First but that only teased me enough that i will be going to a 103 myself real soon.
Ice, what year-model is your bike? If a 96" engine, which cams did you install and what is your impression of them? If you have a dyno chart it would be great to see it.
I just dropped a set of Andrews 37H cams in my 07 Road Glide. Grades I was taking in second gear with my wife aboard are now taken in 3rd. The bikes screams right up to the rev limiter that I have set at 6250. I run a rinehart 2:1, K&N, Thundermax and the cams. Don't have dyno numbers cause I haven't had a need to dyno with the Tmax.

I have 80 miles on my 08 Road King... (Yes... ONLY 80... I took delivery on Sunday and it has recently snowed and we have SALT and SAND all over [no more riding till that **** is gone])...

I already have SEAC, V&H Fuel Pak, and Rinehart True Duels... I am MORE then happy w/ the power...

Do you really need a 103" motor??? If yes... Then Buy it...

If you ask me... 96" is more then enough and I will never use all of it... (and I'm 24 years old) ;-)

Where is the TQ peak? Could you scan the dyno chart and post it? If not, what is TQ at 2500, 3000, and 3500?

Hmm...it sound like the thing to do is to get it Dyno tuned and see what its like after that. I dont feel the 96 in underpowered but two up loaded it definatel slows down some.

Is it possible that just adding a different cam would get some nice results? Any idea which cam? Should I wait for more cams to be developed for the 96?

Sorry for all the questions but still very new to Harley and it sounds like many "upgrades" like true duals may not actually do much for the power side.
