This is what I was concerned with. Ray mentioned on another thread that after 05 the ssw motor had a diff. head that was considered a HD S&S head or something of that nature. Also Jake mentioned that when buying a thunderheart ign. 05 and up ,it has to be for a twin cam motor. The bolt pattern looks right,but I was hoping for someone with this scenario to Chaim in.

As MARV stated and me to, in 05 BDM started using the new SSW+ motors that are EVO bottom and Twin-Cam style tops (S&S version).
Yes, those are the parts you need. Really you just need to ensure they have the hole in the center for the CR's.

I would email S&S support and verify the part #. The # looks right I would spending that kinda money I'd be a little paranoid.
Rob's Cycle in North Syracuse has some good prices on S&S parts...

found the listing you are looking at.
its confusing cause it says 84 and up big twin but has the part # 90-4110.
S & S Die-Cast Rocker Cover:eBay Motors (item 140368334206 end time Jan-16-10 15:13:20 PST)
the # 90-4110 is for 99+ TC style
the instruction sheet is for TC and EVO but the directions alternate for both styles.

O.K. Gang-Here is the scoop! I called S&S tec support 1-608-627-1497 Via Erldawg on a wimm. The tech named Dean gave me the part # and it is 90-4110. Then I called the link that Marv posted and everything checks out.This is a great price and ends the issue of valve geometry and wore guides.I am going to start a new thread on my tear down in a day or two. Finally mastered the digital camera and photobucket,so thanks to all. This forum is "JUST AWSOME".:2thumbs:
BDM 117 uses twin cam heads!

NO. The kit has the box bottom-top-center(rocker holder) gaskets and hardware. Shafts and rockers sold separately. When I talked to S&S today ,the rep said he was completely comfortable telling me to use the TP rockers. Not that he didn't want to sell his product, but said TP was an excellent rocker being forged, and a roller as well, and the box clears up the geometry issue. I got to believe him. so I will dye the stems and review the roller alignment.

YEP. Seem's they use the Evo bottom and the twin cam head. Hence 117TC. Kinda like a sportster fuckin a Roadking.:roll::roll::roll::roll::roll::
