Apparently S&S sold the x-wedge to some company in China and so S&S does not support anything for the engine. We can only hope that the China company will offer parts

Yes and I'm sure I read they have gone metric and all that implies for spares for the units from the States.
I read this on apost from one of our respected M3W hands on members on here.

It wasn't discussed whether the Chinese unit could be swapped in as a whole unit.

The early versions of the S&S engine was broadly based/a copy on the Harley V twin and at one point could be interchanged. Is that the case regarding M3W S&S engine?

Just stumbled into this S & S link with 2024 on the footer.

I know zero about the M3W but this maybe of interest to those that do.

I think many of the S&S engines can be used in HD's. However the x-wedge is different than those engines

contact office@m3wservices.com - they have rebuilt engines available. Sold only on an exchange basis which helps keep the engine supply available for years to come.

The S&S X-Wedge engine has very little that is interchangeable with anything Harley Davidson, other than some sensors. It may look similar but that is where it ends.

Thanks for that, could a complete Harley engine be made to fit M3W

I have heard that a twin cam 88 off a softail has a similar bolt patter. But HD has not made that engine since maybe 2006 or 7.
