    Dude, ya bike looks sweet as, i see you've posted a few times about the bike, i'm no expert on harley's but from what i do know take the cheaper option and work that HD motor, other than that S&S motors are quality, the rest are cheap options.

    And i'd guess that motor has already been tricked up, leave it be until it needs attention.

    Thanks kiwi Dave I have a little hope now. What I have found is a small leak of oil coming from the rear cylinder caskit area no crack I'm just hoping a set of rings caskets and small cam will fix this problem.
