Stage Three Engine Design
This Stage Three engine represents a more
extensive approach to improve engine performance with bolt-on components and a bolt-in
camshaft. Most people can perform these modifications themselves. Modifications over stock
engine are underlined in the list below. The estimated cost for these modifications ranges
from $1200 to $2000. The performance return for these changes can be large for the dollars
spent. Increases up to 30+ HP and 20+ Ft.Lbs of torque can be seen on some bikes.
This engine is an excellent example of what a Twin Cam 88 engine can do. This big bore kit
has not been added to this engine, making the results even more impressive. Note the
broad torque curve on this engine.
For those of you who are interested, the stock bike
dyno run is also shown. A stock bike makes 59.1 horsepower with 72.4 ft. lbs. of torque.
