some basic questions as I continue to search for a Big Dog to buy, Thanks in Advance.

What is a TP motor?

What is the (basic if any) difference between a TP motor and an S&S?

Does anyone know if a 2001 Vintage Sport had the TP or S&S motor. Thanks.

TP is an engine company, S&S is a different engine company. I don think Big Dogs ever came with TP engines...but I am sure someone here will correct me if I am wrong...lol!

:confused:Thanks for the info. I have seen some listed as having S&S motors and some with TP motors.

Sorry for the "stupid" question.

Where I come from there are no stupid questions, just stupid people who ask questions, right?

Here's a wierd one. My o4 pit had the 107 S&S with S&S heads. My buddy's 05 pit has the 117 S&S motor with TP heads. Why, I don't know.

Yeah a little. I was hoping you had another million mile tp motor. Just a confidence booster for some of the guys that have them and are scared of them breaking.
