I built a custom softtail and I have 2000 miles on it. When I let out the clutch from a standing start and give a decent amount of gas I hear a squeal coming from primary. It seems to be coming from the rear of the primary so I think its the clutch. There is no squeal once I get going thru any other gears. Clutch does not slip and the bike pulls great. 100" revtech. Letting the clutch out slow with just a little gas does not squeal. Kind of embarrassing at a light. Nice looking bike but squeals like a hog Any thoughts?

I am looking for a chrome inner primary for a 97 FXD. I cannot find a manufacturer that sells this. There are plenty out there for a Wideglide, but nothing for the sportys.

ok taking the 02 wide glide to a local shop in town.
Carb/stage one only upgrade and the slips on.
the heads a coming off and gonna have it ported and polished.

1. when back together what will I be around hp/tq guestimations
2. any need to change out jug gaskets? some say no but hey I am there should I?
3 head bolts?
4. any timing problems afterwards?
all I am trying to accomplish is better flow,les effort but hey any pickup in power is cool.
4. think it will get closer to 1hp per cubic inch?
should'nt that that be pretty much a natural thing without buying a buttload of performance parts and basically building another bike?

comments?

I have a 01 flhr with a stage 2 kit and a holley carb.I also have a high performance fuel pump.While riding I get oil blowing out through my air breather.I've had it back to my dealer and was told that this is normal,but enough comes out so that the seat and the inside of my pants leg gets soaked.If anyone has any ideas as to what is causing this it woulb be very helpful.Please note that all parts on the bike are Scream'in Eagle
