Just bought a SE 113 kit and SE cases from a friend that lost interest in the build. 10.5 compression, SE 266e cams, MVA heads, cylinders, pistons, throtle body and cases with big bearings already in. No boring either.

I am going to build it for my 15 RoadGlide.

Just wondering if anyone has experience with this kit? If it takes a year no problem as I want to make it bulletproof.

The 266 cams seem a little too radicle otherwise I think it will make a nice street motor at around 120tq/hp.

Its too late, its already mine. So give me the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Will probably have DarkHorse do a crank for me as I have been very happy with there work in the past.

Any and all input greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your time,

Anybody???

 

Wish I could help you out but.......

 

you got it covered, in my opinion, might consider some headwork, and if you want bulletproof, geardrive will work nice with that darkhorse crank, and no messing with tensioners, also what oil pump you going to run?

 

I agree with Harleycharlie. Sounds like you have it pretty well covered. I'm not familiar with the 266 cams but there are a lot out there to pick from. I also agree that gear drive cams would be a good option since the crank will be bulletproof.

 

Definitely get rid of the 266 cams, unless you spend all your time riding at 4 k and above.

The heads flow pretty good but they will benefit from a good clean up and port job. In addition, I would match the spring pressure with the cam profile. I've found the springs on those heads to be a tad heavy for my taste. If it's already apart, do the crank with dark horse or revolution performance. I've had good luck with both.

Timken bearings in the cases, and use adjustable pushrods vs perfect fit.

Number of cams around that make good power. I'm a Woods fan and run the 408 in mine but have heard good comments about the 9f.

Oil pump and cam plate should get some focus and I run a 15% baisley spring

My input

 

I forgot about the spring, I put them in all the motors I do, good stuff, with their valve. the only thing I don't do unless they are going to ride it hard, and I ask, is I wil do the SE lefty brg, on both sides

 

Yes had that debate a couple of times. Guess I like the Timken vs the lefty because I been doing it the same way so long.

What do you see are the benefits of the lefty on both sides vs the timken.

 

I do believe that the lefty brg is very strong, thats why I use it on both sides, why not? good for the load side even better for the non load side. I think the advantage is you dont need to worry about end play, the comp sets the endplay up, and you're done. And its very cost effective. However, those people who rev the crap out of their bikes, love burnouts, wheelies, and other terrible things perpetrated upon their bikes, I go the timkin route, and they just have to pony up for the added costs involved. The timkins are stronger, and take a beating better, without a doubt. I don't give a choice to those riders, I just say thats the way I do it, take it or leave it. I don't want you mad at me down the road. But for the most part, most of my clients are older, wiser, and definitely cheaper!!

 

Thanks guys.
Considering the SE camplate and oil pump but would like the Feuling if funds allow.

The S&S is nice too.
