MACHINE CRANKCASE
Crankcase Boring Preparation
NOTE
During final assembly of the engine, Harley-Davidson recommends replacing the OE cylinder studs with Screamin' Eagle High Tensile Studs (16505-01).
  1. Remove cylinder studs from the engine crankcase.
  2. Mask off all bearings and oil holes to prevent debris and contaminants from entering those areas.
  3. Inspect and clean engine case mating surfaces.
  4. See Figure 6. Reassemble engine case with OE screws, except the top center screw between the cylinders, and tighten to specifications listed in service manual.
  5. NOTE
    To prevent damage to crankcase boring tool, it is important to replace the top center screw with a modified top center screw (1093). This screw is included in the Crankcase Boring Tool Kit (94419-06) and can be purchased separately from a Harley-Davidson dealer.
  6. Install modified top center screw (1093) between the cylinders and tighten to 50-90 in-lbs (5.6-10.2 Nm).
  7. See Figure 1 and Table 1. Machine crankcase cylinder spigot bore and O-ring counterbore to the dimensions shown.
Modify Crankcase
NOTE
To prevent severe engine damage, thoroughly clean and remove all chips and debris from the engine crankcase after boring.
  1. Disassemble crankcase and wash (or clean) chips and debris from engine crankcase halves as necessary.
  2. See Figure 3. Using a 11/32 in. (8.7 mm) drill bit, drill out the existing threads of the top center screw hole. Drill to a depth of 0.79 in. (20 mm) from the gasket surface.
  3. Using a size "F" in. (6.6 mm) drill bit, extend the top center screw hole 1.00 in. (25.4 mm) maximum to a depth of 1.79 in. (45.5 mm) from the gasket surface.
  4. Using a bottoming tap (purchased separately) size 5/16-18 UNC-2B, tap the screw hole to a minimum depth of 1.59 in. (40.4 mm) from the gasket surface.
  5. See Figure 2 and Figure 3. Remove the thin material between the cylinders next to the top center screw as shown, by using a 5/8 in. (16 mm) ball end mill and milling a 5/16 in. (7.94 mm) radius at the two points shown.
  6. Refer to the appropriate service manual and assemble the engine with the following changes:
  • See Figure 6. Install the top center engine crankcase screw (15) supplied in kit but do not tighten.
  • Tighten all of the engine crankcase screws to the specified torque, except the top center engine crankcase screw.
NOTE
Note that the cylinder spigot seal is a rectangular o-ring which should be seated at base of cylinder prior to the cylinder being assembled to the crankcase. Using the crankcase to seat the rectangular o-ring to the base of the cylinder can roll (spiral ) the o-ring during assembly. A rolled (spiraled) o-ring will create a leak path at the cylinder/crankcase interface.
  • After the cylinders and heads have been installed and the hardware tightened to specification, tighten top center engine crankcase screw to 5.6–10.2 N·m (50–90 in-lbs)
INSTALLATION
Install Engine and Clutch Components
  1. See Figure 6. Inspect camshaft needle bearings (7) and replace if necessary.
  2. See Figure 4 through Figure 6. Assemble engine top end and bottom end using parts from kit. Refer to appropriate ENGINE sections in service manual.
  3. Install engine in chassis following the instructions in the service manual.
  4. Install clutch diaphragm spring from kit. Refer to CLUTCH INSTALLATION in service manual.
  5. See Figure 7. Install exhaust system using exhaust pipe assembly (1) from kit and mufflers previously removed. Refer to EXHAUST SYSTEM INSTALLATION in service manual.
  6. See Figure 4. Install air cleaner assembly using backplate (8) from kit. Refer to AIR CLEANER INSTALLATION in service manual.
Install ACR Overlay Wire Harness
See Figure 7. Install ACR Overlay Wire Harness Kit (70623-08) following the instructions in the Instruction Sheet for that kit.
Final Assembly
WARNING
Connect positive (+) battery cable first. If positive (+) cable should contact ground with negative (-) cable connected, the resulting sparks can cause a battery explosion, which could result in death or serious injury. (00068a)
NOTICE
You must recalibrate the ECM when installing this kit. Failure to properly recalibrate the ECM can result in severe engine damage. (00399b)
NOTICE
Installation of this kit requires a calibration update using Digital Technician. Failure to download calibration update before starting motorcycle will result in ACR failure. (00567b)
1. Connect battery cables, positive cable first.
2. Calibrate the ECM before connecting the ACR overlay harness connectors to the ACR solenoids in the cylinder heads.
3. Install fuel tank according to the instructions in the service manual.
WARNING
After installing seat, pull upward on seat to be sure it is locked in position. While riding, a loose seat can shift causing loss of control, which could result in death or serious injury. (00070b)
4. Install seat according to the instructions in the service manual.
5. Install left side cover and left saddlebag. Refer to service manual.
6. Start and run engine. Repeat several times to verify proper operation.
