By Popular Demand 

S&S assembles a lot of flywheels, and we are often asked what we use to 

hold them steady during the assembly and truing process. Dealer and 

retail customers who have attended our training sessions at the S&S Dealer 

Training Center in LaCrosse, WI have repeatedly asked if they can buy one 

of our custom flywheel fixtures, so we have decided to offer an economical 

fixture kit that includes the essentials for flywheel assembly and truing – 

S&S style. The kit includes a massive fixture to hold the flywheels, flywheel 

clamps and hardware to mount the flywheel to the fixture, and a spanner 

bar plate to be used with a length of steel pipe to fabricate a long spanner 

bar for truing adjustments. 

The fixture is mounted to a heavy bench. Flywheels are clamped to the fixture, 

allowing the assembler to torque the mainshaft and crankpin nuts to our 

higher than stock torque specs. (We recommend using a torque multiplier.) 

Once the flywheels are assembled, the spanner bar (some assembly required) 

can be used to shift the flywheels in order to bring the mainshafts into true. 

This method is much easier, faster, and safer than hitting the flywheels with 

a lead or brass hammer to true the assembly. 

Works for stock and S&S flywheels for 1936-'99 big twin and 1957-'03 

Sportster® models. 

The S&S® flywheel assembly fixture is massive and rigid. Add a piece of steel 

tubing to the included spanner plate to make a tool that positively “plugs 

in” to the holes in an S&S flywheel and allows you to adjust the alignment 

of the flywheels, making the truing process a lot easier.

The design of the S&S® flywheel assembly fixture is based on this custom made 

fixture that has been in daily use in the S&S flywheel assembly department 

for years. You supply a length of steel pipe to fabricate the spanner bar which 

is used to shift the wheels to bring the mainshafts into true.

Any Job Is Easy With The Right Tools 

Saving You a Lot of Money and Trouble 

S&S has an elegantly simple, and totally effective solution to the problem of 

the inner primary bearing race moving on the transmission main shaft under 

high load conditions. A unique modification to the design of the mainshaft 

inner primary bearing race, positively prevents it from "walking" into the 

mainshaft seal and output gear. The S&S bearing race features an extra step 

on the inside diameter that acts as a stop on the transmission mainshaft. 

When the race is pressed on to the shaft, the step will not allow the race to 

move inward toward the mainshaft seal. The improved S&S bearing race is a 

must for any high performance application. It is included as a part of all S&S 

high performance clutch kits, and can be retrofitted to stock and aftermarket 

transmissions for all 1991-'06 big twins (except '06 Dyna®).

High performance power trains take a serious beating. That means that 

they require more frequent service. Time is money, and in order to allow 

you to make better use of your valuable time, S&S offers some new tools 

for clutch and primary installation. First there is a primary inner bearing 

race installation tool, with a radial thrust bearing that decreases the effort 

required to install a bearing race by 30%. Then there is the new S&S Clutch 

Puller that is specifically designed to remove an S&S high performance 

clutch. This is also helpful when removing a stock clutch from a damaged 

mainshaft. Finally there is an attachment for the S&S Clutch Puller that 

allows easy removal of the primary inner bearing race. 

All of these S&S tools are CNC machined from the finest 4140 tool steel and 

heat treated for maximum reliability and service life.

Get It Right The First Time! 

It has always been difficult to accurately measure the distance between the 

intake ports of a v-twin engine. In the past this has made ordering intake 

manifolds for custom engines somewhat of a gamble. The S&S Manifold 

Measuring Tools make it easy to specify the length of a special manifold 

with precision, and get it right the first time, every time. That can be really 

important when you need to finish an engine in time for an important race. 

Here’s How It Works: 

S&S offers several special tools for measuring engines and manifolds. 

The Engine Measuring Tool for Harley-Davidson® Evolution® and Twin Cam 

88® engines consists of a pair of measuring fixtures that bolt to the cylinder 

heads using the manifold mounting bolt holes. The measuring fixtures for 

shovelhead and ironhead Sportster® models simply slip over the intake ports 

on the cylinder heads. The fixtures provide convenient parallel surfaces to 

measure between and determine the exact distance between the centers of 

the intake ports of an assembled or mocked up engine. To measure the length 

of an existing manifold, simply slip the manifold measuring fixtures over the 

ends of the intake runners of the manifold and measure the distance between 

the parallel surfaces of the cone shaped depressions in the fixtures. 

The S&S Manifold Measuring Tools eliminate inaccuracies that can be caused 

by attempting to measure cylinder heads or manifolds with various port 

diameters or shapes, chamfers, and any number of machining variations. 

The measurement taken using any of the S&S Manifold Measuring Tools is 

the actual distance between the centers of the intake ports of the engine or 

manifold. It is important to remember that a manifold for a specific engine 

will be about .030" shorter than the distance measured between the intake 

ports of that engine. That provides about .015" clearance per side to allow 

for manufacturing and assembly tolerances. 

S&S has adopted this method of measuring manifolds and has based a 

new manifold numbering system on port to port measurements using 

the S&S Manifold Measuring Tools. The new manifold size number is the 

distance between the port centers of the intended engine, expressed in one 

hundredths of an inch. For example, the distance between the intake port 

centers of a stock Twin Cam 88 engine is 4.100". That measurement converts 

to 410/100" so the manifold size number is 410. All current S&S manifolds 

for Evolution and Twin Cam 88 engines are marked in this manner. To 

determine the new size number of an older manifold, refer to the manifold 

size conversion chart on the next page. To determine the size needed for 

an S&S engine, please consult the charts in the appropriate section of this 

catalog.

Bearing Protector Tools 

For S&S ® X-Wedge ® Engines 

Protect Your Crank! 

This bearing protector slips over the bearing surface of the X-Wedge 

crankshaft to prevent damage to the surface of the main bearing journal 

when mounting the crank on an S&S flywheel assembly fixture. At 42 lbs., 

these cranks are heavy and can be a little awkward to handle. It would be 

easy to scratch or dent the journal without the protection of this flanged 

sleeve. It can also be used on the sprocket side of Victory® crankshafts. Made 

of billet aluminum.

S&S ® Cam Alignment Tools For X-Wedge ® 

Here are some very handy tools for aligning the three cams and installing 

the cam belt in an S&S X-Wedge engine. The three dowel pins are used to 

position each of the three cam belt pulleys with alignment holes in the cam 

plate. With the cams correctly positioned, it is a simple job to install the cam 

drive belt using the cam belt tensioner socket and a 3/8" ratchet. One more 

reason why the X-Wedge engine is so easy to work on!

Tech Tip: Use The Right Oil Filter 

There are two types of spin-on oil filters available for Harley-Davidson® big 

twin engines, and it is important to use the right one for your style of engine. 

One type of filter is designed for late shovelhead and all Evolution® engines 

up to the 1999 model year. The other type of filter is designed for Twin Cam 

88® and Twin Cam 88B engines 1999 and later. 

Prior to 1999, the oil filter was located on the return side of the oil system. 

Low pressure in the return line, plus the air being pumped along with the oil 

made it necessary to use an oil filter media with a relatively open 30 micron 

rating. In 1999, the Twin Cam 88® engine was introduced and the oiling 

system was updated. In the new system, oil is filtered under higher pressure 

before it goes into the engine. This allows the use of an oil filter with finer 10 

micron media, which will filter out smaller particles of debris from the oil. 

The lower micron rating of filters for 1999-up engines makes it tempting to 

use them in earlier engines to give them the same degree of oil filtration. 

However, the increased restriction to oil flow of the 10 micron filter media 

can cause oil return problems in these engines. These problems may range 

from a slight increase in oil mist out the breather, to large amounts of oil 

blowing out the breather, generally at sustained high speeds. 

Another difference between the two filter types is that the 1999-later style 

has an anti-drainback valve or bladder. Since the filter is in the supply line, 

it must be full before the engine will get any oil. The anti-drainback valve 

keeps the filter full while the engine is not running, ensuring that there is no 

delay in oil delivery at startup. If this type of filter is used in 1999 or earlier 

engines, the increased restriction to flow from the valve is another factor in 

oil return problems. 

We recommend that you always use the correct filter for your engine. 

It’s easy to tell if your filter has an antidrainback 

valve. The valve is a rubber 

bladder, which is easily seen through 

the inlet holes in the filter. This filter is 

for 1999 and later big twin engines.

S&S ® Oil Filters 

Protect your investment. The most important thing you can do to 

maximize the life of your engine is to keep your oil clean. Friction-wear 

particles and combustion byproducts are picked up by your motor oil. 

Regular oil changes are essential to keep contaminants from accumulating, 

but from one oil change to the next, your oil filter is your first line of defense 

against these wear causing particles. Make sure you have an S&S oil filter 

working for you. 

Features and benefits 

❚❚ Sturdy steel canister houses the finest filtering media and 

internal components available 

❚❚ Smaller than stock diameter for easier installation and removal 

❚❚ Designed with a direct bypass valve that routes bypass oil 

directly to the filter exit. Direct bypass minimizes the amount 

of contaminants carried to the engine in the unfiltered bypass 

oil since the oil is not allowed to pick up contaminants by 

flowing over the "dirty" side of the filter media, as it is in some 

competitive filters. 

❚❚ Filter media traps the smallest possible particles while 

maintaining the lowest restriction to oil flow. 

❚❚ Available in black or chrome finish
