I'm using my 700R4 and only had it upgraded with new clutchpack and no shift kit ... and added a new converter with stock stall. Seemed to be right for a cruiser. I don't know why the 350 wouldn't work, but an o/d might improve the mpg somewhat. I've heard of stock tanks being converted to efi w/return lines, but I'm unfamilar with the particulars ... I recall others on this forum have done it. Your questions are typical of the "while I'm in there" syndrome that I'm struggling with?

Good luck from one bagger owner (Y2K FLHT) to another! Keep us posted.

I won't have mine for 4 weeks. That is how far out they are on the builds. What are you going to run for exhaust? I would like to find a short tube set that will work with this truck but not sure where to start.
