No, mine is a stock cylinder bored 3mm over. There's plenty of meat on
a stock cylinder.

With the stock piston? At about 80 hours, I pulled mine down and saw
some wear in the cylniner from the piston rocking in the bore.I did
put another stock piston in it and it ran fine before I decided to go
big.

There isn't much advantage going to an '06 head.

But that's fairly pricey. My 480 stuff cost about $350 for everything.

I have a custom ground cam from Crower Cams. Good stuff.

US Chrome. A new cylinder is relatively cheap. I keep a stock new
spare cylinder. I think my cost on it was something like $155. Might
be worth it to cut down time to a minimum.

I have with no problems and I have the SS valves.
