Keeping With the Times
With so many twin cams on the road, more and more Evos are finding themselves back on showroom floors or in the classified ads. While the Evo is a great motor, in its stock form it just can’t measure up to the performance of a stock twin cam. We decided to take a trip over to Lifestyle Cycles in Anaheim, California, and see what its main performance guy, Larry Hardy, and his Performance Techniques shop could do with a ’96 Heritage.
Hardy is known throughout the industry for his vast knowledge on how to turn a stock motor into a real performer. He is a whiz when it comes to headwork, and over the years, has come up with quite a few performance techniques — no pun intended — on how to get Evo motors up to speed with the twin cams. Hardy had a lot in store for this performance package, which includes his headwork techniques, a new cam, new pistons, new pipes, a new ignition, and a new carb. Follow along as we watch him work his magic.
