I'd like to do the S&S 4.5" crank with 4" cylinders/pistons.

If' you're looking at @ a 4 1/2 x 4, which requires case boring already, then why not go 4 1/2 x 4.060 for 116/117 (whatever it is)?
I believe I saw a question about the 4 1/2 x 4 on the HQ Techline. FWIW, doug does do the 120" config I referenced above.

Phil,
Who's crank were you talking about for the 120" build. I am not going there (really 113" is big enough )
, but am curious what Doug recommended.

RE: Another new build - Going Whole Hog
Shipped a set of heads to HQ today. Stopped at the local dealer and purchased an engine rebuild gasket kit and a primary cover gasket. Anyone doing this build, - the engine rebuild gasket set does NOT include the engine -transmission mating gasket. Remember to buy it separately.
Downside is that I always wanted a chrome inner primary, so while there, and figuring I would have it off for the rebuild anyway, I purchased that too. This build is already over budget ![:@] But I am really looking forward to the results !
