Default EVO vs. TC 103 0-60 mph?

How would an EVO Dyna and TC 103 Dyna compare in 0-60 mph times?

0-60 times are for couch racing corvette owners.

More like what's the time between an 80" engine verse the 103" . Too many variables bud like how built is the engine in question and the skills of the riders, know some evo boys who will embarrass the twinkie crew.

I have an 80 Evo Softail and just sold a 103 Softail a few days ago. I love my Evo, but my 103 would walk all over it. Both of these motors are stage 1.

I have both a 2015 Limited with 103 all stock (just Vance and Hines slip on mufflers), and a 97 FLHT with some work done (cam intake and exhaust) my evo will out run my TC.

Hmmm 80cid versus 103cid, that's a tough one.

Here is a link on how to get a EVO up to 64 HP with basic mods...which would be getting closer to a stock 103, not the 103 HO

http://www.nightrider.com/biketech/hdbuildstage1.htm...

Here is the answer to a couple of more questions you might be pondering...

regular conventional oil is fine....you don't need nitrogen in your tires...stock spark plugs are fine...if you add pipes your ok, but if you include a high flow air cleaner, yes you will have to rejet

Assume you're talkin' totally stock motors, the Evo guy would know the TC's license plate number.

dickey is right.
A stock 80" Evo hasn't a prayer in the world against a 103TC in any kind of drag race.

I can't imagine anyone not adding a high-flow air cleaner when adding pipes.
