· Due to the vibration from this set up most fasteners used are ASTM A193 B8 Class 1 304 Stainless steel with nylon lock nuts for optimum corrosion resistance to eliminate galling and seizing. Loctite Green 290 Threadlocker was used on every application that a nylon lock nut could not be used.

· Engine. The engine is all S&S except the lower cases. I used the stock cases to maintain the 1975 VIN and I have the Texas title to match that VIN.

· S&S 93” Big Bore Sidewinder 3 5/8 Big Bore Cylinders (powder coated), nd pistons., &S pinion shafts and flywheels, &S 514 cam (550 lift, olid lifters), &S Hi Flow oil pump, &S “Super Stock heads, &S Super “E” carb.

· I have the paperwork for a 6 run dyno pull. Max power = 77.68, Max torque = 91.30. This set up was from out of the box stock settings. You could run triple digits in both categories if you change cams and do some tricks with the carb. I chose to leave it with these numbers because this set up is bullet proof for reliability, ependability, nd with the low bike weight 580 lbs, he horsepower/weight ratio is very strong.

· The 1.25 dia. drag pipes and heat shields were custom fabricated by Paughco. After three tries we got it right.

· Clutch: Barnett Scorpion

· Transmission is an early 1980’s model rotary top (Maytag) 4 speed. Kick AND electric start.

No fluid leaks. I have owned many shovelheads and they have a reputation to mark their territory, ut if you use quality gaskets they won't leak

This bike was a three winter project. I built it to ride and enjoy, ut with reliability and dependability considerations. I did not build it with any intent to “show it”, ut I got so many compliments on it I decided to see how it would compete with bikes built to show. Result was 6 shows/6 trophies, 4 first place and #2 second place. I mention this only to convey that this bike was built with quality parts and for appearance it competes very well with show bikes.

Note: A new speedometer was installed when the engine was built At 2581 miles it quit, o I installed another new speedometer and it has 869 miles showing, o total miles on the engine is 3450.

Note: My state titles motorcycles by the frame and this bike was built with a 1993 Paughco frame. The donor bike was a 1975 FLH and I have a copy of the 1975 title. The lower engine cases from the 1975 were used and the 1975 VIN is on these cases.

Not for sale outside of the United States. Payment in full before I release the bike. Pay Pal for the deposit ONLY. No returns.
