Here is another fun fact I just found out.
If you order a motor from Drag Specialties it comes without carb or ignition.
That cheap price I was getting is getting more and more expensive as time goes on.

My S&S 107" came with carb, IST ignition system and 3 years warranty.

Ask for a full refund. Then add up what all of the extras are gonna cost and look around some more. Parts is parts and these can add up quick.

I have a sneaky feeling that the motor was either a customer return or something in house to DS that has been molested for parts already or a Demo unit. hence the supposed discounted cost and shoddy shipping technique? That's really too bad, wth man? I hate that, you deserve to get what you ordered, I don't care the cost! That's just completely unprofessional and someone on the other end will most likely lose their job if they lose this sale.

Do you plan to get an exchange (you mentioned refund)? Thoughts moving forward?

I hear you.
It would still be cheaper than $5k if I took the motor and bought the parts separately.

That's what me and the guy that I ordered it from think too.

I'd rather have my money back but if that doesn't work I'll take the motor.
