High mile Ultima engines?

[Reddog74usa]

Anybody have an Ultima engine with say 50K miles plus? What size, mods and type of use?

my ultima 113 in a early 84 fxrs has over 50,000 on it. depending whom i'm riding with it can get hammered on all day long. francoharley got rid of his hotrod for a ultra so it doesn't happen to much anymore. lol. no problems other than wiring to coils and other minor stuff. took care of all that.

Thanks for the reply BB. Is the engine original out of the crate or did you change anything out like lifter, rockers or cam?

Thanks bigblock! Seems to be a lot cheaper to just buy an Ultima than try and build an 80" to 100+ HP and torque...would have to bore cases, go longer stroke, etc...

so far it's original out of the crate. as soon as i get my 95cid dyna back together i will probably freshen and blue print top end. ie deck height clean up heads, set squish etc. with it being early 84 and chain drive it's always been a fun ride. change from 51 to 48 to46 tooth sprocket depending on mood
