S&s 143"
What to do? What to do? I have achieved a goal of having the number and types of HD's that I wanted in my garage. The next step is to have one of them modified for power.
I have been talking to the dealer. They have a Police Dyna that they tried a couple of set ups. The latest one will spin the tires just twisting the throttle in first and second then chirp third.
What I wanted was to take the 10 Street Bob with the TC96 or the 14 Low Rider TC103 for the project. I was just thinking of flowed heads and a cam. However now that S&S announced the 143" with 160 HP, I am wondering if I should put it in the Low Rider and then put the cams into the 103 with flowed heads into the Street Bob. That would lead to giving my son the TC96 to replace his worn out 88 in his 06 Street Bob.
I am going to decide soon as I'm 74 and want the project done while I can still ride.
I like the idea of just bolting in a complete engine.
Any thought for the best power set up for a Dyna?

For 08' and up Baggers-
There are other ways to build a motor for 160 N/A HP plus for your Dyna.
The key is being pump gas friendly, reliable, easy to start in any heat soaked condition, and lasts a significant amount of time before you have to go into the motor. Race motor-EZ, street driven daily driver, NOT.
Keep in mind, when you get to this power level, and more, chassis, tire, driveline, brakes, clutch, exhaust and more have to be addressed as well.
If you are really serious about this level of power, ( and I'm not talking a 140 hp 124"), but real crazy killer street power, the kind that will smoke anyone in your city who rides a HD, and be respected by sportbikes up to 1/8th mile, and knowing what else needs to be done to the bike as well-it's possible and doable as I am currently riding that type of bike.
Otherwise, I suggest just modifying what you have or bolting in a HD120R (you will still need a clutch) or crate S&S 124" and enjoy just hot rodding around town.
Be careful what you wish for-

The S&S 143" is built for the touring chassis per the website. Not real sure what would be involved to get it into a Dyna. I'm sure there would be a lot of fabrication involved trying to keep the motor from shaking itself to pieces in a Dyna frame.

For now, the 143" only fits in 2008 and later HD touring models so it won't fit in the OP's Low Rider. I don't know if S&S plans to make a 143" to fit HDs other than baggers.

What's the price tag on the 143? Haha now the 124 looks like a sissy. Who wants a 150 hp 124" when up can have a 200 hp 143" **** I was going to be happy with a 130hp 124"...
