Beefing up drivetrain for 107 build?

One other thing I would do is throw these tensioners in the cam chest while you have it open and also go with the Axtell bypass valve.

A pipe you should consider if you dont like the noise is to look into Supertrapp Megashots; their a stepped header 2:1:2 system with 26 discs. I was able to get 124/121 out of my 103 and at 70 mph I find myself turning the radio down ;O)
A word of caution though they are pricey at $1995.

Sorry I just ordered it and it shipped out already. Trying to get everything in before the next weekend build. I am hoping to install the clutch spring, aim vpc and Hayden tensioner a few days before I tear it open for the build. One less thing I have to do on the day of the build.

109/126 here with my FM 107 build, FM Level B heads, TW-555 cams, MGS True Duals.
Mine is a 2011, so it had the SE compensator already. Runout on the stock crank was great, so we left it alone. Left the stock clutch pack and spring alone.
Only driveline upgrade we did was the AIM VP95LT clutch.
I've had this build for 10 months and 11,000 miles, including a 4,100 mile trip to Sturgis/Yellowstone/Beartooth. Ran the dog **** out of it at times, and behaved myself on the highway for 41 MPG (hand-calculated between fillups). No runs, no drips, no errors. Lots of smiles!

Oil cooler or ward fans?
