Something was fishy when I talked to the guy a couple months ago. They said they had 13 of them ..than 3. Started at 11 grand. Dropped to 8 grand. Now?? Lol. Supposed to replace a Indian engine they had started building with. I passed. Lol
He showed it in a bagger frame but it wasn't real clear......... Thought it was n NJ or NY one of them. Even if it's real deal.....wth would u do for parts. There are guys with race motors already on the street somewhat detuned @ 155-168 cu. cool looking motor . But I wouldn't think u have a chance in h e II of ever talking to the manufacturer . They said they were 30 grand a copy. Lol. I found out more like 20k with carb. But 135 hp and 159 torque . It's was a company in mich associated with Penske at one time....

I see the engines were commissioned and designed by ILMOR. As a Dodge Viper fan, I always thought it was cool back in the early 2000's, when ILMOR used the Vipers V10 for the basis of a marine engine.
To this engineer's eye someone has gone to a lot of trouble to design and build that engine. May be entirely billet, by the look of it. I don't know about their presence in the USA, but Ilmore are/were UK based and built F1 engines for many years. They gave us race engines that bounce their pistons off the heads on the exhaust cycle, to increase performance!
Would be a brave soul who bought one to use, I must admit, especially when S&S have a 145" available, for those of us who need a little extra.
