I have the 66 on my own 124 I am swapping it for a 58 E from HPI. As I have run both back to back and I pick up[ low end power with the 58 peak numbers stay the same but low speed drivability is vastly improved.

My experience as well.

In fact, I went from a HPI 62mm to an HPI 58mm to an HPI 55mm with my 120 motor...

Yup, high horse power / high rpm builds - Not low end power and drivability. OF course this is my opinion based on my experiences.

  Someone mentioned the stock rods as being "powdered". Can this mean what I think it means? Pressure, heat conformed rods!!  Say it isn't so!!  I know Monroe shocks uses "powdered" metal valves in their shocks, but not really under the same stress levels as a connecting rod on a HD. twinotter

Powdered connecting rods have existed for decades.  Common standard component in automobiles since at least the 70's...   :2vrolijk_21:

Is it possible these units have been reworked by somebody like Dave Mackie (or other talented folks) and that fact is being left out of their posts ? You don't have to buy a new TB for the majority of these builds, there's lots you can do with the stock units. Nobody talks about it much around here though.

That's the point.

In my 61 years on God's green earth of which 48 have been spent on motorcycles, I've seen hundreds of guys call their bikes "stock" because they used the OEM parts but modified those parts extensively.
