Default 120R vs TMan 117" KIT

Alrght guys, Im selling my FM 107" kit and going to upgrade to either a 120R or Tmans Nasakil 117" Thumper Series. Its going in my 2011 Street-bob.

Right now Im assessing the price difference and performance difference between the 2. I know I will need to purchase a few odds and ends to make the 120R run. Right now I have the TTS Master Tune, SE High Flow Intake, Thunderheader exhaust, Barnett Scorpion Clutch. So that leaves me with the SE Compensater, throttle body and injectors (which i will end up buying for the 117" as well).

Selling my current motor for a touch under $6000.00.

I have a spare 96" TC at a buddys shop right now that it torn apart to include the cases. If I go with the TMan 117" kit with the bottom end kit service Im in the ball park of $4900.00. This does not include labor, throttle body, injectors, or the machining of my cases to accept the 117" stroke.

What is your guys ideas on the TMan 117" vs, SE 120R power and price advantages to both? It appears that the SE120 may have the potential for more power and less hassle (being it is right out of the box assembled and ready to drop in).

Looking for some opinions. Thanks.

My money would go with the 120R. Everything matches and assembly is complete. No warranty either way though, so the torque values would probably be my decision maker.

Thats why I posted it. You get everything for a tad more than building it yourself and dam good #'s. Hindsight is 20/20.

When I finally pull the trigger on a big motor, it will be that S&S one.

Why the hell would you build one when you can score the S&S for a good price. I would still hang a turbo off the side though to give it that extra nudge in the right direction.

Slap one of these on that S&S and you will have a real runner!
