Default Ultima 127 in Need

I own a 98 FLSTF that I show horned a 127 into.
It went real clean with only cutting the coil mount off for rear cylinder clearance.
Sometime ago, I was buzzing down the freeway and heard a strange sound coming from the engine.
The oil tank spigot that feeds the pump broke off at the weld after many many years of doing it's job.
What came from this was a lost lifter, which I replaced with new pushrods, and after restart, broken rings in the rear cylinder.
Trying to get someone from Ultima to contact me is *** painful and should have to be.
I need replacement parts for a top end job and these guys only want to work with shops.
I don't need a shop and my take with shops is they are less than honorable and I probably know more about EVOs than they do.
Anyone have any ideas?

Default Very interested

Very interested to see responses here, as I have a 127 Ultima as well, and heard about the Ultima poor unfriendly customer support, especially when you are looking for parts or technical help.
