Default Engine compatibility

I own a 2011 fltrx. Road glide custom. It has the 103 engine. Will a 2016 103 bolt in its place??? Don't think they changed the cases since 2011.

It will bolt right in. You'll have to do some tuning though which should be no big deal, different cam etc.

Yes it will . The 2011 RGU came factory with the 103. The rest followed in 2012.
Long as it is not a wet head version.

Thank you for the fast responses. I thought they should be the same.
