[@martinXY]

Can you explain (in small words for me please) the practical difference between the V&H Big Radius 2-2 Exhaust system and the Freedom Exhausts you mentioned that gives a boost in HP for the latter. On the outside, they look very similar: both 2 into 2, both short and that's about it.

[@MasterTechMiller]

The V&H Exhaust systems are 2 individual pipes. The Freedom Exhaust systems have a balance pipe between then about 3/4 of the way down. This balance gives an advantage similar to having a 2-1 system.

[@MasterTechMiller]

[@user-bh6pj9im1g]

Question: going that deep into motor, why keep the chain drive if using an s&s crank assembly? would not think it was because of run out?

[@MasterTechMiller]

No benefit whatsoever from a gear driven cam set. The argument about 'tighter timing' & the rest of it is just straight up nonsense. The amount of stack up tolerances & deflection in the valve train renders that argument irrelevant. As for the fact of wearing out chain tensioner shoes, well that too is just a selling point for gear driven cams to pounce on. Regular servicing these chain driven sets last for over 100,000km. There are many different conditions that may accelerate the wearing out of parts but I can you now, after 15 years with Harley's I've only has 1 issue with a cam chain breaking & it was on a stock Twincam. Sure I've seen tensioner shoes wear out but those too where on the early Twincams with the spring loaded shoes.

[@ianwilliams7375]

[@robertfagan8833]

Another great video on a fantastic 131 build. Great cam choice.. great torque.. how would the CR 512 compare numbers wise

[@MasterTechMiller]

If I was to put the CR512 in this combo as it is, the peak HP numbers would be much the same due to the exhaust choice.

I am constantly told two into one exhaust is better for torque and horsepower but I to have the big radius V&H on my stage II, I just like the look and sound, form over function I guess, nice build!!!

Love the content and checking in from time to time for some inspiration….you’ve got this performance thing locked down 🤘 congrats on hitting 10k!! It’s interesting to see someone else’s process for building a motor being a master tech myself, which leads me to one question…I noticed you used blue loctite instead of red on the cam gear bolt and the pinion gear bolt, is there any specific reason? Keep up the awesome work 🤘

[@MasterTechMiller]

Its more than capable of keeping it tight. In my 15 years I've only ever had 1 issue with a cam bolt. It had broken but I didn't work on that bike. It came in to us with a noise on the cam chest. Not sure why it broke. I've obviously done many cam swaps on bikes I've put cams into & every time I undo the bolts they're tight.

[@VtwinRevolution]

Seems like I remember there was a run of those cam retention kits that were breaking the cam bolt, we saw a few at our shop. Cool, like I said it’s just interesting to see someone else’s process when building a motor. Keep killin it dude 🤘

[@danr919]

Hey mate are you a believer in external breathers for the air cleaner? Do you run them on your builds?

[@MasterTechMiller]

No. I prefer to just vent the trans cover. You can then decide to put normal bolts in place of where the breather bolts go & let it all breath through the trans cover. Or, you cam vent the trans cover & leave the breather bolts installed as the vented trans cover relieves the pressure across the engine & greatly reduces the oil misuse recirculation

Hey Tommy, what’s your experiences with fuel use after a cam and tune? I’ve got a 117 CR483 and 6.2 injectors. Even when riding sedately I’m using about 9L/100km so would this be resolved through more tuning or is it just part and parcel with increased power.

The S&S flywheel is constructed much stronger than the OEM Flywheel. That's why we went that way. The customer plans to give it a hard time. The OEM Flywheel is fine to run in 131ci applications but only as long as its a gently ridden.

[@GarrettAnderson-d8d]

@user-os1mm8to6l There is no way of ever knowing how the bike has been treated or ridden it whole life. Whether it's a 131ci or a Stock 107ci, if it's had a hard life you're still taking a gamble no matter what. I would be mainly concerned if it's a late model 2019 bike or an early model 2019.

@@MasterTechMiller I am not being a smart ass, I am simply asking how many miles would be expected? It is not like the engineers are caring about longevity they care about the #'s it produces to make the customer happy.

[@MasterTechMiller]

@8mywal8 these pistons are manufactured by MAHLE. A leading & very reputable manufacturer. The pistons are absolutely fine & they will last in excess of 100,000km. I will convert that to American. To calculate this, we first need to know the length of a cheeseburger. Let's assume a typical cheeseburger is about 15 centimeters long (half a cheese burger) Then, we can calculate: 100,000 km = 100,000,000 meters Now, we'll convert the length of a cheeseburger to meters: 15 centimeters = 0.15 meters Now, we can find out how many cheeseburgers would cover 100,000 km: 100,000,000 meters / 0.15 meters per cheeseburger = 666,666,667 cheeseburgers So, it would take approximately 666,666,667 cheeseburgers laid end to end to cover a distance of 100,000 km.

Approximately 4.6ltrs compared to the 3.5ltrs found in Twincam touring models. The VVT M8 platform has water cooled heads that has priority flow to the rear head.
