Phil,
I built the same build you are working on here. I did not have my rocker boxes & covers clearanced for the new valve springs & cams. Should I have done this, I have not noticed any issues so far. I have around 2000 miles on the build.

About how much total time working on the bike are you going to have?

Phil, Did you take the weekend off? Waiting on parts? Run into a problem? Just wondering.

Wow Phil...that's gotta feel just a wee bit like you've done that bike before!

But I will say to the OP, you are in good hands. I got to stand around and get in the way while Phil was doing a lot of my build in December of 08. I think the most help I was was cleaning the threads on some screws one night

The best part of getting a Phil build is that he is about as complete of a mechanic as they come. He really is a perfectionist and you can be sure he didn't cut any corners. I remember the day I came over and he had completely set up my breather mist oil bypass, just because "we can't have that." It still works great to this day.

You'll love the 107. Good solid build with plenty of bunch and can run all day without any finicky behavior. Last tune for me was 107 HP 116 ft/lb, but all I know is that I can never resist the urge to roll on the throttle, no matter what kind of ride I left the house for!

When you get an enthusiast doingn the work like Phil, there isn't much room to improve!

You're going to love it. Glider is right, the best stuff comes from those with a passion for it. Phil definitely falls into that category.
