Default 103" Big Bore Kit

I was at the stealership today working out the details for Stage I install and download. They are having a sale on the big bore kit. Includes the big bore kit, SEAC, SERT and labor to install and tune for $1695.81. That is tax, title and license out the door. What do ya'll think about the deal?

Good deal if they throw in cams and dyno tuning! You can buy the 103 stage one kit on-line for a bit over $500.

What are you talking,
Is this starting from a 96"?
Replace the juggs and pistons?
Are they taling re-sleeve on your juggs?
Is it a kit?
What's the HD part #?
What about exhaust?

just wondering about the what's and where's.

This is starting from a 96". It is a kit with new juggs, pistons & SEAC.It will also include the labor to install these items and a SERT with dyno tuning. As for the pipes,those will be anadditional purchase but will be included in the tune.

be sure you get a quote on your exhaust system before you have the work started. It may sound like a great deal now, but if they try to sell you a 1500.00 exhaust system then the good deal just went down the drain.
Good luck with your build. I hope all works out for you well.

Another benefit for me is that this kit will not affect my extended warranty with dealership or the MoCo.

Stealer's 103 kit will give you marginal improvement over stock numbers. ALL good builds begin with heads being re-worked.

I'll second the , becareful on the price of the exhaust.
That could make or brakeyour deal.

One of the hardest things I've had to do, is to set a limit for the steps I take towards the finished setup. One of the things that makes it so hard is, I put so many miles on the bike that most of the new and newer parts are getting tired by the time I finish with all the goals. Plus the goals seem to change as I go as well. Next thing you know the bike is 10 plus years old.

In a perfect world, ( I don't live in one! ), there would be pleanty of money and time to bring the perfect change to one bike at a time, while riding the last bike that you just made perfect. lol

good luck with your goals

As for the mufflers... With a download I am limited to SE only. But if I go with the big bore and the SERT I can go with any muffler without affecting my warranty. Vance & Hines are around $400. I asked if I could buy parts online and have them install. If I go that route, I will forfeit my extended warranty. Can't really blame them for that, they gotta make the money somewhere.
