Stage IV kit for the M8 $2595.95

CNC Heads
64mm Throttle Body
5.5 gps injectors
SE8-515 camshaft
lifters
big bore cylinders
11:1 pistons
High Capacity Clutch and springs
Great question...I am thinking if it is warranted and EPA certified, it will be way down on potential. That is my thinking. Time will tell

I would say the 107 is going to be very stout.
My blue M8 in this post is a 107, I put a 114 kit in it and ported heads and doing cam testing now. I hope once we get the cam event timing and fuel system figured, we will be near the 135 to 140 hp range.

Because my 113 TC made over 135 with two valve heads

Good to know - thx.

I spun my TC crank with way less power, but obviously, a different crank.

Lol... George you're too humble. Running in the 10s on a Road King on tv... Wish that show was still on.

Been trying to figure out a way to send one of my bikes to "that" place for years...
Someday.

One thing to note is that HD increased the diameter of the crank pin on the M8 over the TC.. It's noted in the product release.. This should reduce twisting and/or spreading.. Don't know how much the increase was tho.

I got it done today!
I went from right 80 HP, SAE to 125 SAE, picked up 30 pounds of torque too!
I used the Stage 3 kit, swapped cam out for a .465 lift cam, ported head, bored throttle body, TTS, D&D pipe. Results/dyno/photos coming soon!

Those are some very nice numbers on what the potential of a built 114" M8 it must feel like a rocket ship. So much more than my Stock Stage III 114"Kit Dealer installed,with CVO slip-ons ,Hi flow AC= 107HP/110TQ EPA SE Tune and full 2 year Warranty.
