I posted this in another thread so I am copy and pasting here.
The bracket itself seems pretty substantial. I like that it was welded at all bends and seams. Heavy duty stuff. It took maybe 10 min to do this install.
The holes the stock torx screws go into to mount the bracket onto the cylinder heads seem just a little large but I assumed this bracket was also used on a different type of engine that has larger screws?? I dunno but there is enough surface to still get a good torque on the screws to secure it in place. Be careful not to over tighten and break the powder coating (Like I did).
The Screamin Eagle wires are 10mm which are beefier than the stock which I like if for anything the look of the fat wire but I didn't like how short they were. Maybe 1/2" or 1" more would have been nice because it just seems to me like it would be put in a bind. I am sure there are many people running these same wires with no problems so I am sure its ok.
In case you don't already have a good idea of how to install the bracket the kit does come complete with good directions and materials needed for the swap.
Make sure you have a Torx T45 to remove the screws on top of the cylinders.
Overall I think its a quality product they offer. I have no regrets spending the money to get a finished install on my bike that looks professional. Since I don't have a fab shop to manufacture or weld this worked out good for me. Here are some more pics for the hell of it.
Thanks for looking

For this size wire, Harley only makes the Screamin' Eagle in the Black & Red.
With the PRO RACE Wires we only stock the Black & Red also. They can make them in other colors for us, but the minimum run is 50 sets of them.
Thanks for checking!

Great products with super fast shipping from a great group of people. I'm tickled silly with my coil/ignition relocation and lift kit. Alot of guys make the brackets themselves and that's cool to but with the cost of this kit and the super quick shipping made it a no brainer from me to get it from DK. DKs tank lift brackets are the best looking option I've seen.

Big review with lots of pics of install, including how to do a wire tuck with no tank lift.
