unfortunately I have a 2013 M3W 3000 miles with a completely blown engine. Just bought it a few months ago not knowing...Any updates on this thread about engines or parts? I need cylinders or oversized pistons, valves, guides, gasket kit, timing belt. etc. Would love to bolt on a new engine but suspect I'm on a serious parts search... 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

I read this on a post 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?

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.
