Required
Would you recommend this product?
74" engines have a stroke of 331/32", and 80" shovelhead engines have a 4¼" stroke, but the cylinder length for both engines is the same. The 74" piston is taller than the 80" piston; piston deck heights of the two pistons are designed for the same piston to head clearance in both engines. While it is possible to install an 80" top end on a 74" engine, this will result in very low compression and poor performance. A 74" top end will bolt to an 80" crankcase, but, the pistons will contact the cylinder head due to the combination of the taller 74" pistons and the longer stroke of the 80" flywheels. Therefore, it is important to correctly identify the stroke of the engine before ordering a top end kit.
