S&S Cycle T143 Twin Cam Engine for 1999-2017 Harley-Davidson Dyna and Touring

S&S Cycle T143 Twin Cam Engine for 1999-2017 Harley-Davidson Dyna and Touring

The S&S T143 is the largest displacement engine S&S builds that fits in a stock Harley-Davidson Twin Cam chassis – and it is not a subtle upgrade. Riders who have lived with this engine describe a machine transformed: throttle response that demands full attention, acceleration that reframes every on-ramp, and a presence on the road that makes everything else feel ordinary.

• This is an ultra-performance and race application engine. Professional installation and tuning expertise are required. Longevity, engine noise, vibration, and throttle sensitivity have been intentionally compromised in exchange for maximum performance. It is the purchaser’s responsibility to assess suitability for their application
