I,ve got 700 miles on my FLSTFSE2 and wanted more [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]...low to mid on demand.
Here's what I'm doing right now.  I'm taking pictures of the whole process and will post a link shortly.

HTCC CNC Ported Heads w/compression releases
Matching htcc forged stroker 10.5:1 pistons
258 cams
roller rockers, forged supports and roller tappets
perfect fit pushrods and high tensile studs
SE 50mm throttle body
Thunderheader 2-1 pipes
Race Tuner

My dealer has done a lot of builds and tells me this will be a real torque machine.  I do most of my driving in the 2500-5000rpm range and want the low to mid range power and hill climb grunt.  Thank goodness for black friday sale.

Yeah, 'er 'uh, fatboyse2,
  Sound like a good selection of MODS, with the exception of the Roller Rockers.  Really would be overkill with less than .600" lift on the SE-258 cams.  I would go with the SE-260 cams.  I had similar set up on Ol' Maudie when she had a 95" Motor, except for the 2 1nto 1 Header, and the perfect fit pushrods.  Ran pretty good, but nothing like the "Big Motor" I have in her now!  Later--HUBBARD

Fatboy,

Sounds like what I would love to do. Have they given you any idea of Hp & Tq numbers. what made you choose the 258. (I agree with Hub doing all this the 260 would be better) I would sugest your 2500 - 5000 range will change to 3000 - 6000. It will be a whole new ride.

They're expecting 115/115+ with this setup.  Why the 260s over the 258s.  I understood the 260s were more mid to top end of the rpms and 258s started lower thru hi-mid of the band.  I need to move more than the bike

[AUSSIE_FLSTFSE]

Look forward to updates as they happen (love the sound of those numbers)

Yeah, 'er 'uh, fatboyse2,
  They can [highlight]expect[/highlight] in one hand, and [highlight]chit[/highlight] in the other, and see which one fills up the fastest!  [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]  Later--HUBBARD

  That's pretty much the same set up I put in my 04 SEEG. Except I used the 260 cams, stock TB, and a D&D Borezilla exhaust. MY #'s where 117 hp 114tq. It ran pretty strong but not strong enough...
One thing I did NOT do was go with the timkin upgrade and SE Pro crank. At 4200 miles it blew the bearing out! My dealership covered it under warranty.
  This time around I'm going with SE Pro crank & Timkin upgrade. I was also considering the HD113 cylinders, but I'm in the process of checking out a 124 set up with heavier mods throughout.
  You should check out gear drive cams and go with a timkin conversion or the new GP designs bearing support. I posted an article about the bearing support in the twin cam section. It's just good insurance down the road...Or you might really be "Going for broke"! [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]

Good luck,

Grover

Welcome aboard here.  The motor project sound impressive.  And you're already finding out one of the great benefits of this place; tons of information available from folks that have been there.   Sometimes the hard part is just sorting it all out while keeping your own intentions in mind.  

Again, welcome aboard.  Don't forget to take the kidding with the help.  It's all part of the process here  [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]  And don't forget to report on everything when it's all done.

Thanks Don.

Grover, I found the article you posted on the Timkin bear support and will investigate this further.  This is a great site and I'll keep the progress reports coming. [smiley=banana.gif]

[fatboyse2]

Okay, finally got time for another installment of Going for Broke.

Here's the not so old spare parts.

[fatboyse2]

and here's some of the new SE parts still to be installed on the bike.  By the way, I switched to SE264 cams after a several beer discussion with the dealer service guys.
