The "Pandemonium" motor IS an Evo motor with "Pan style" rocker covers and a generator style cam cover.
You sure about that? It sure looks like it's more than that to me.

Here a list with the components used by Revtech fortheir Pandemonium 88"
Big enough to provide good power, yet still kickstart friendly. Every part was hand-picked for quality... first! Bottom to top, from the S&S® timing and idler gears to the JIMS® pinion, to the Mallory Unilite® automatic advance distributor, and back to S&S® pistons! Naturally, there is a RevTech® crankshaft with heavy-duty connecting rods working in harmony with STD® crankcases and heads. The American-made hydraulic tappets were installed in JIMS® Big Axle tappet bodies. An Andrews® cam was chosen because of it's perfectly matched design qualities for use in these 88" generator-style engines. Even the Rowe™ valve guides and Andrews® valve springs and collars, are coddling one-piece RevTech® stainless steel valves that were hand-picked for the best quality, best performance and a trouble-free combination.
Are its a good items?
Do you think that it's truly trouble-free with this spec?
Do you know if also the erly Pandemonium used a STD crankcases?

My tech recommends revtech over others like Ultima. Granted, he says you're better off with S&S but a close 2nd is revtech. Considering how much time he has wrenching, I'd buy one.
Did your techwork onthe Pandemonium engine or similar?
Thanks

Any else comment about Pandemonium or other new panhead?......It's really appreciate.
At last I think Revtech Pandemonium has a good parts inside (STD,S&S,Andrews,Mallory,JiM's, ...) the only thinghs made by Revtech are crankshaft, valves, oil pump and I think also the cast iron cylinders.
If you look at the partsseems good, doesn't it?
