I am looking for a good source for performance parts for my Sportster. I am looking at doing some case boring and putting a stroker crank. I know that Revolution Performance has a lot of stuff for my Sportster but I am not all that enthused about their cylinders. I know of Black Widow for camshafts etc.

Can anyone point me a good direction that has QUALITY performance parts? I am not anti HD stuff either but it looks like their selection for the Sportster is very limited. Thanks.
Thanks,
Whip

S&S for stroker cranks etc. With their parts you can build a 100" motor.
Andrews cams and gears.
Zippers do some nice parts.
Axtell do an 88" kit.
NRHS do a 1250 etc.

The Internet will find you the good and bad about all of the above suppliers.

I have used Andrews stuff and always found it to be very good.
If you can't fix it with a hammer and a roll of Duck tape then you're in trouble

The 1250 is a nice way to empty your wallet.

what is the max you can bore a stock 2002 case out to ,with full cast iron cylinders ?
I guess what I want to know is ,can you bore the stock case to 4.0 or  95.8 ci with a stock 3 13/16 crank ?
or is 3 7/8  89.9  ci the limit?
thanks Kirby.

No thanks. I will check out Hammer and see what is happening with them. Just out of curiosity, did they ever really get the issues with the nikilsil cylinders worked out?

Thanks,

I am not sure that trust the nikilsil after the horror stories that I have heard about it. I was looking using Rev Perf stuff but then I saw that they use the Nikilsil so I have backed off from them. Will be an interesting build that is for sure. :) Once it is able to get going.

I guess the reason that I don't do that is because I want to be the one to put it together and choose what goes in it. I want to learn so I guess if I fug it up than I fug it up.  :chop:

3.812" bore is where we call it quits.
4.000" requires a raised deck case to clear, and have a skirt intact, at BDC.
