Has anyone used the revolution performance 113 kit? If so was it built well and did it last. Or is it of poor quality? I was thanking of putting this on my 08 fat boy this winter. What cams would you use it you were going to do this?

you have to open up the bottom to go that big so you may as well go to a 117/124. Crank will have to be addressed
The add said no splitting the case just like the new SE 110. That is what it said in the JP cycles book. This is why I won't some feed back from guys that are using it now.
A "shop"(actually one-man-band) severly tarnished the RP cylinder reputation quite some time ago via using Chinese rings inside those nickel-plated cylinders, on 40-50 or so, 98" cylinder kits.
Scattered the hard nickel material thru the entire engines, creating a real mess.
Class-action law suit was in the works, but never materialized.
Same outfit can no longer purchase from Axtell, R&R Cycle, or Bob Wood.
That said, those cylinders seem to work fine.

we wont use nikasil plated cylinders here,too many problems in the past.like already stated,if your going to go thru the trouble of splitting the cases,ide go with a longer stroke & bigger motor.remember you can go 107" without boring the cases,ide do that
