Prior to installing the mounting bolts, the 4 lower engine mounts must be checked to verify the engine is sitting flat on all 4 mounts. This can be
checked by using a feeler gauge between the mount and the frame. If the engine is not sitting flat on any of the mounts shims must be installed.
Failure to properly shim the mounts could results in damage to the engine case not covered under warranty.
After the engine is shimmed, the lower mounting bolts can be installed and torque to 70-80 ft-lbs. The top engine mount can then be installed; it
must connect between the front and rear cylinder heads and the frame.
The engine will accept the primary and stator charging system from a 2001 Harley Davidson® Softail® or equivalent. Follow the manufactures
instructions for installing the primary and stator to the engine.
2- Install Oil and Breather Hoses
New oil tanks and lines must be flushed to remove any debris that could damage the engine’s oiling system.
•
Recommended oil tank capacity is 4 quarts oil and 1 quart air space. Use ½” ID oil line to ensure an adequate oil supply capacity.
•
Minimum oil tank capacity is 3.5 quarts oil and 1 quart air space.
•
Clean the oil tank to remove any debris. Using new ½” ID hoses connect the oil return hose, oil supply hose, and the oil tank vent hose following the
"OIL LINE AND BREATHER SySTEM DIAGRAM" below.
