V80 SERIES COMPLETE ASSEMBLED EVO ENGINE – WRINKLE BLACK
Harley Evo Engine | The V80 Series Complete Assembled EVO Engine – Wrinkle Black refers to a modern aftermarket version of Harley-Davidson’s Evolution (EVO) engine, produced by companies like S&S Cycle. This engine is often used in custom motorcycle builds or as a high-performance replacement for Harley-Davidson motorcycles equipped with the original EVO engine, which was first introduced in 1984 and became widely popular due to its reliability and performance improvements over the previous Shovelhead engines.
- Displacement: 80 cubic inches (1,340 cc), which was the standard size for the original EVO engine. The V80 typically maintains this size while offering enhancements in performance.
- Design: Based on the Harley-Davidson Evolution engine design, which became known for its solid reliability and efficient cooling compared to earlier Harley engines. The Evolution (EVO) engine replaced the Shovelhead and is renowned for its durability.
- Finish: The Wrinkle Black finish gives the engine a distinctive textured, matte-black appearance, which is both stylish and practical. The wrinkle black coating is durable and resistant to heat, oil, and dirt, making it popular for custom bikes.
- Power Output: The V80 engine can produce significantly more power than stock EVO engines due to modern upgrades. Typically, these engines can generate around 60-80 horsepower, depending on the specific configuration and tuning.
- Fuel System: Like the original EVO, the V80 often uses a carbureted fuel system, but some versions are designed to accommodate fuel injection systems, depending on the buyer’s preferences.
- Cooling: The engine is air-cooled, like the original Evolution engines, but with optimized engineering for better cooling efficiency, reducing the risk of overheating during long rides or under heavy load.
- Transmission Compatibility: The V80 engine is generally compatible with Harley-Davidson 5-speed transmissions, making it a drop-in replacement for motorcycles originally equipped with EVO engines.
- Materials & Build Quality: The V80 is constructed with modern materials and superior manufacturing processes, offering improved durability and performance compared to the original Harley-Davidson Evolution engines. Upgraded internals and better oil circulation are often included.
The V80 Series is a popular choice for:
- Custom motorcycle builds where a balance of vintage look and modern performance is desired.
- Replacing old or worn-out Harley-Davidson Evolution engines in bikes from the 1980s to early 2000s.
- Riders who want an upgrade in performance without sacrificing the iconic look and feel of the EVO engine.
Benefits of the Wrinkle Black Finish:
- Aesthetics: The wrinkle black finish gives the engine a stealthy, custom look, which pairs well with dark-themed bikes or minimalist builds.
- Durability: The textured surface is resistant to scratches, dirt, and corrosion, making it easier to maintain a clean, sleek appearance over time.
- Heat Resistance: The finish helps dissipate heat, which can be beneficial for air-cooled engines like the EVO.
