I have a 1981 road king police addition. I would like to install an S&S 113 but don't know if it will fit the frame can anyone help me with this I'm not even sure wher to start looking for this info so I'm starting here
Hi from the UK and welcome to HDF. The Road King didn't come out until the mid 1990s, so your bike must be something else, either a rubber-mount FLT or the older style solid mount FLH. In any event your engine is probably a shovelhead, whereas the S&S 113" is the later Evolution style. S&S make 93" and 103" versions of their SH shovelhead engines to fit your bike. If you can narrow down details of your bike we will try to be more helpful!
If that '81 happens to be a RubberGlide.. as I suspect, someone made an FLT into a Pseudo Road King [Commonly done] The Frame Cradle will accommodate about any Engine the MoCo Produced.. EVO certainly.. S$S can tell ya if you tell em what yer putting it in...
I have my Doubts the Clutch will handle what yer tryin to feed it tho!!!

Yup. I did the same also. 1989 Custom Softail. New EVERYTHING! 103 EVO. After said and done, Progressive was nice enough to insure it for 15K for $366 a year.
