FOR LOTS OF people this is still the most popular engine on the market. S&S starts with their bullet proof crankcases, flywheels, cylinders, and heads that they have offered for years, and finish the engine with new premium valve train components.

Corrected tappet guide bore geometry assures correct valve timing using Evolution style cams. The unique adjustable pushrods are collapsible for easy removal and installation, but are stronger than the old style adjustable pushrods.
