Default Engine swap: 103 into a 2004 touring chassis?

I have a buddy in need of an engine. I have a 2012, 103" stock engine. Will it fit into/ work with a 2004 Road Glide Ultra?

Road glide was not produced as an ultra in 2004 and road glide was not produced in 2014. So

Short answer is No.

Long answer, anything can be made to work with enough money and time. However Cost would probably be prohibitive and it would be cheaper to trade or build his existing engine vs making the investment.
