I noticed today that my exhaust was loose so while tightening it I noticed that both base gaskets are leaking. DAMN.

On a brighter side it gives me motivation to rebuild the top end.

I was talking to a friend that has jugs and 4" pistons for an S&S.
I can have them but they will only fit on S&S cases and I would also have to get S&S heads.

I would end up around the 111 size.

Decisions decisions.

Will my OEM rocker boxes fit on S&S heads?

 

I don't want to spoil things, but I suspect the stud spacing on a 4" S&S cylinder is bigger than a stock Evo.

 

I called S&S and they said it wouldn't fit no way and no how.

At least I get to get serious about pistons and what/not for engine rebuild.
It is no longer a pipe dream!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Chin up Texas, all you need are the S&S cases and......

 

If I were going to use those jugs and pistons I would need the cases the crank the heads the rocker boxes.........

To hell with that I would buy a complete motor in that case.
Which I can't afford at this time.

As it stands I think I'll go with head work, pistons, and a 2 into 1 exhaust.

I can do that for a lot cheaper!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

A properly built 80" will bring many smiles to your face.

 

yes it will , There s a guy down in my area who has a Evo dyna he's about 6'1 & 200-250 & with hisor a girl on back & wheelie like a sport bike ,& he's just hitting it easy cause she's on back ,I've ask what all he's down to it & his reply is it's all Harley parts Not S&S or any other just HD

 

Time for those Wisecos and a little head massage, thc!!

 

I doubt I am gonna use wisecos as they only come in 10 - 1 and that is more than I want.

 

Nah, just need a bigger cam..
