103 Head Question

Anyone know the chamber volume of the stock HD 103 heads?
Is it the same 85 cc as for all previous stock twin cam engines?

Thanks,
Rod

Bathtub chamber volume typically runs between 85cc-86cc but I have seen them measure as high as 89cc.

I just had a set of 08 heads re-newed and blueprinted by "Deweys Heads" of Wa.
Like dolt said above, one of mine was very far apart of the other.. so accurate measurement is needed to get them equal... And a good head man to check... Thanks Don Doorfman...

I Know of No difference in the stock heads, being either 88", 95", 96" or the 103". Same..

85cc

Looking at Big Boyz caculator, they call out for 85cc as their stock starting numbers.

Re: 103 Head Question

They average between 85-87 cc's.
A good cfm, for a 103-107 ci engine is right around 160 cfm, @ 10"/.600" lift.

Rod,
Do you know of an outfit, in Edmonton, by the name of Fabmasters Ltd.?

FishHunter;
I am not familiar with Fabmasters. What do they do?

Harley made Screaming Eagle 103 heads for a while.
Anyone know the chamber volume and valve sizes for these?

Thanks,
Rod

Re: 103 Head Question

Yes, part #'s for the particular cylinder head would aid greatly to arrive at a conclusive answer.
