I would think that data should hold up for either drone engines or sport, since the only difference was a crappy carb, or at least I think that was the only difference.

Yes, you would be correct. I may modify one of the crappy carbs as an experiment to see if a little more airflow translates to more power from one of these guys. I do think the Sportsters get a bad rap like the Foxes do because of the long break-in, but they are such sweet running engines. Screamers they aren't, but they hand start so easy and idle lower than any engine I own. They do make a big mess though...
