hi, it's getting cold up here!

i ride mostly xl's.
been licensed for
over 40 years now.
like to ride distance
to keep my sanity.
so far, 1433.8 miles
in 28 hours, a trip
home from clayton,
new mexico.
i'll go thru the archives
1'st, however, i'd
appreciate any links to
valve geometry answers.
when to use longer valves,
spring pressures vs. cam,
when to use roller rockers.
it's winter project time.

What have you tried to find on your own?

I ask, only because half of that is a lifetime of geometry, technique, factory specs, and engine building 101.

What is it you NEED to klnow or what is it you want to do?

You need to be more specific.
