Hello all, I am thinking of having this kit installed into my 08 FLHT. $1,200 to buy. $? to have fitted. 

Anybody done this route. If so what's your opinion on it?

any correspondence appreciated.

I would be paying my dealer to install it. 

I do pretty well everything to my bike, but I'm not confident enough to pull an engine apart.

Yes mate, I just thought the idea of that bit more torque would be appealing, you know , pull out from behind a b-double and round it up. 

I've done the stage one bit and found the difference to be bugger all. I'm not a speed demon by anY stretch of the imagination. I just feel that I'd like a bit more from  off the mark to 4 thousand revs. 

Thanks for showing an interest.

buy some 107 CP flat tops and bore your barrels

Or if your rear pulley is a 66 th you could fit a 70th. Maybe a couple of hundred and some time in the shed.

Thanks people, I appreciate your time and comments.

hi,

go for it Neale you wont get better quality parts anywhere which will bolt together correctly, if you take it to 4 mechanic shops you will get four different builds/opinions and a variety of parts/components and if something goes wrong the tune/tuning device or tuner will probably get the blame

you will definitely get a boost out of the stage 2 kit, some dealers have winter specials so maybe go to a couple and get a price

thanks

I've gone with an s&s 106 kit, 583 cams, assembled by APL at Windsor who will be porting my original heads and doing an individual cylinder tune on the shop dyno. I will let you know the end results.
