If money wasn't an issue and you had the opportunity build, from the ground up, an engine for your Evo what would you build?

 

I would have a stroker kit with a rumblesticks sidecar cam in it, stock compression and everything else....I just love low-mid range torque and buckets full of it.

 

Low and Mid Range Torque is what I am aiming for with my rebuild as well, but I suppose that depends on what you call med-range in terms of speeds.

 

Having owned my Evo from new:

• I rode it stock for a while,
• then did a basic stage 1,
• followed by cam and ignition module,
• 89" stroker kit, high CR pistons, cam, exhaust, etc,
• 107" S&S engine with 2-into-1.

Each step has simply left me wanting a bit more! If I had the funds I would build a 124" low CR S&S engine, with the same cam as my 107", their 585. They sell crate twincams with that spec, I'm not sure if they sell an Evo equivalent. That might just about be enough......

I really wanted a 124" when shopping for my current engine, but my S&S dealer persuaded me against them at the time, for use in a bagger, as simply not a suitable application, but that was when they were only available in high CR and loud cam form. So it is unfinished business for me!

 

Reflecting on the 'ultimate' aspect of wombat's request I would add a Baker trans gear cluster, just because! A DD5 will be adequate, I'm not convinced of the need for more ratios. The rest of my bike will be pretty spot on once I finally finish it!

 

Probably this, since money's not an issue, just drop in another when it's used up.

350 to 500 Hp Turbo Orcas

 

I am a simple man.
An S&S 111 would do it for me.

 

Mid range as in rpm...like massive stomp from 1500-3500 rpm.

 

If I ever hit the lottery, I'll send you mine.

 

FXRT. Baker DD6, and an Ultima 127 built correctly, ohlins stuff... fast cross country road burner basically. I'd probably kill it within the first 10k miles though... I can't own motorcycles like that.
