-Deciding ahead of time on the performance upgrades you want is important. \\ +====== Lightning Heads ====== 
-When you prepare heads, the chamber wants to get bigger. \\ +1200S heads and the older (pre-rubber mount) SE heads, 96-98 Buell S1 heads, 97 Buell S3 heads, 97-98 Buell M2 heads and Buell Blast heads are the same. ((aswracing of the XLFORUM https://www.xlforum.net/forum/sportster-motorcycle-forum/sportster-motorcycle-motor-engine/sportster-motorcycle-engine-conversions/89229-conversion-using-used-parts-where-to-go-from-here?t=715370)) \\ 
-This happens for a variety of reasons. \\ +These are what we call "Lightning" heads. \\  
-The valves are sunk in the heads to gain (valve to valve) and (valve to piston) clearance. \\ +62cc chamber with a 10° cast in squish shelf, 1.715/1.480 valve sizes, the old low floor, squared off bowl ports like all the hemi heads etc. \\ 
-As well as correct valvetrain geometry, and they're heavily unshrouded to improve low lift flow. \\ +All 1200S motors came with flat tops just like every other Evolution Sportster. \\
-As in the head picture above, all these things increase chamber volume and makes the compression ratio lower. \\+
  
-At the same time, moving up the power scale really calls for more compression, not less, as the cams you'll use bleed off more compression. \\ +The Lightning head was the first generation performance head from HD for the XL motor. \\ 
-You can deck the heads to drop the chamber volume somewhat, but that has limitations and bad side effects. \\ +All they did was take the Hemi head and add a bunch of material to the chamber to bring it down from 67cc to 62cc. \\ 
-However, the coarse adjustment for the CR needs to be the piston and head decking should only be used for fine adjustments. \\+And they dual plugged some of them (1200S and the later SE versions). Ports and valve sizes stayed the same as the hemi head.
  
-Therefore, if you do your conversion with the standard dished conversion pistons, you put some constraints on future performance work. \\ +Bringing the chamber volume down like that, with no change in the piston (i.e. they stayed with flat tops), bumps the compression up. \\ 
-You're simply not going to be able to run as much cam or do as much head work so long as those standard conversion pistons are in your motor. \\+(from the stock 9:1 to about 10:1. That's the sole performance gain of a Lightning head) \\
  
-Check with your engine builder / supplier for further assistance if you're looking for a complete performance package. \\+The problem with those heads was the way in which they added the material. When you just add material to a chamber like that, you shroud the valves. \\ Looking at the chambers, you see a whole lot of material around the valves. That obstructs low lift flow. \\ 
 + 
 +====== Thunderstorm Heads ====== 
 +Two years after the Lightning head, HD came out with the Thunderstorm head. \\ 
 +In the Thunderstorm, they went back to 67cc , allowing them to unshroud the valves and a 15° cast in squish shelf. \\ 
 +They paired it with a domed piston to get the compression up to 10:1. \\ 
 +They also improved the ports and went to larger valve sizes (1.810" / 1.575"). This setup is head and shoulders better than the Lightning setup. \\ 
 + 
 +The angled squish bands direct the fuel being squeezed out of the squish bands more directly at the flame front. ((aswracing of the XLFORUM https://www.xlforum.net/forum/sportster-motorcycle-forum/sportster-motorcycle-motor-engine/sportster-motorcycle-engine-conversions/1572-questions-about-buell-upgrade?t=2206)) \\ 
 +But the way it's done in the Thunderstorm, it's really rough. Since it's cast in, it's uneven. \\ 
 +Typically from the factory the clearance is .050" or more, and that makes the squish band largely ineffective anyway. \\ 
 + 
 +Thunderstorm heads are obsolete now. \\ 
 +They could be machined nice and even, but there's a huge overhang around the perimeter. \\ 
 +So to machine it, typically .035"-.045" had to be taken off the deck, sometimes more. \\ 
 + 
 +Below is an example of before and after machining. This is much better with a nice even and consistent squish clearance. \\ 
 +But cutting the deck this much has some side effects, like less valve to piston clearance. \\ 
 +As well as potentially forcing the customer into short or adjustable pushrods. \\ 
 +It also typically makes the chamber too small, forcing us to open it up in other areas. \\ 
 + 
 +Also notice how there's not a whole lot of surface area. This squish band is effective up to about a .125" tall dome. \\ 
 +Anything higher than that and the dome goes past the squish band. \\

 +This lets you toss them on over flat tops and have a squish band with lots of area and 10:1 compression. Not a bad way to do it. \\ 
 +If you want to angle it, it's not a problem, you've got lots of material to work with. \\ 
 +You can make the squish band as big or small as you want. \\  
 +You can make it match the piston you're using exactly, do relief cuts with the rest of the material to help overlap flow if you want. \\ 
 +You can do all this without excessive deck milling and all the problems that come with it. \\ 
 + 
 +The stock valves are the same sizes as the Thunderstorms, 1.810" intake and 1.575" exhaust. \\ 
 +The springs and guides can support up to .550" lift safely, though, versus .500" for the Thunderstorms. \\

 +
 +====== Effects of Deck Height ======
 +In general, deck height has nothing to do with the squish band. \\
 +In the example below with a 3-9/16" bore and the chamber is about 3" in diameter. \\
 +Since you have a 3" diameter chamber over a 3-9/16" diameter bore, the head deck overhangs the bore by a little over 1/4" all the way around. \\ 
 +Notice how the piston is a flat top for a little over 1/4" around it's perimeter. That's not an accident. \\
 +
 +If you look at the drawing below, \\
 +You can see that cutting more off the deck isn't going to change the clearance between the top of the piston and the head deck. \\
 +To change that clearance, you've got to use a thinner head gasket, or mill the top of the cylinder so the piston sits higher in it. \\
 +(or use a thinner base gasket which accomplishes the same thing) \\

 +
 +\\
 +However, there are situations where decking the head does change the squish clearance. \\ 
 +Look at a Thunderstorm or Lightning head with their angled shelf and massive overhang for example. \\
 +In the pic below, you see it's got a cast-in squish shelf. That shelf is angled, and the heads were paired with a piston that had a matching angle. \\
 +But see that big overhang around the perimeter of the chamber? \\
 +If you deck this head, you reduce or remove that overhang. That most definitely changes the squish clearance. \\
 +So there are situations where decking does change the squish clearance and situations where it doesn't. \\
