Many auto salvage yards are bidding/buying them at the auto insurance pools. Linder's Inc., in Worcester, Ma. has a few Harleys and also some Japanese models in stock....WJ

Glenn, how are you man? Kinda off topic but how are things with your car? How did the head/cam swap turn out? I saw it at my buddies place in Corning last winter/spring but never heard what kinda power it ended up making.

Yup, had to change out the cutout motors. Beat the **** out of the floor cause the torque arm bangs, still gotta beat it some more. I gotta re-register it so i can get it inspected so i can get it to TTP soon, because its getting nice out and shes itchin to drive it.

Well its been sitting since then. It runs good enough to get it movin on the pcmforless tune, but the idle sticks when its in close loop (like 1200 rpm). I think theres alot more left in the tune. Lopes real hard with both cutouts open. Had my son not too long ago, so were trying to get some money together to get it a real tune, so i can blowup the rear.
