If I can figure out how to post the pictures on an already existing story I will. As for the mistakes that you need to look out for just be prepared for a lot of changes. I ended up having to put beefier N4 cams, adjustable pushrods, re-jetted the carb, and burnt out my ignition module so I got a Twin-Tech TC-88A adjustable ignition module. Some of this might not have been necessary if it wasnt for the fact that I ride the thing like I stole it. I'm pretty hard on it. Plus it doesnt help that one of my buddies I ride with has a Kawasaki Vulcan 1700 with the 2053cc v-twin in it. Trying to keep up with that thing has burnt up a few things. However, I am completely satisfied with the performance that I have gotten out of the new motor. I ended up getting a new set of 883 heads (stick with stock 883 heads for the compression) off of a 2006 883R. I'm pushing at least 72-77 hp now with an ungodly amount of torque. I haven't found anything yet that can take me off of the line. Good luck and I will get pix posted as soon as I can figure out how.
