Super E Carburetor Kit For Harley Twin Cam 1999-2005

The Standard of V-Twin Power: S&S Super E Carburetor Kit for Twin Cam 88

The 1999–2005 era of the Harley-Davidson Twin Cam 88 brought a new level of displacement and heat to the Big Twin family. While the factory constant-velocity (CV) carburetor was reliable, it was never designed for the aggressive performance many riders demand. The S&S Super E Carburetor Kit (Part #11-0440) is the definitive solution to unlock the hidden potential of your 1450cc (88″) Twin Cam engine. By replacing the vacuum-operated stock unit with the legendary “Shorty” Super E, you gain a mechanical, high-velocity fuel delivery system that provides arm-stretching torque and a crisp exhaust note. This is the must-have upgrade for riders who want their carbureted Twin Cam to pull harder and respond faster from every stoplight.

Mechanical Precision and The “Shorty” Advantage

The “Shorty” designation isn’t just a nickname; it refers to the Super E’s compact body, which is 1-1/8″ shorter than vintage performance carburetors. This allows the 1-7/8″ (47.6mm) bore to sit closer to the intake valves, maximizing air velocity and ensuring the air-fuel mixture remains atomized for efficient combustion. Unlike the stock CV carb, which relies on engine vacuum to lift a slide, the Super E features a mechanical butterfly throttle. This provides a physical link between your wrist and the engine. The moment you twist the throttle, the fuel is there. This “snap” and immediate acceleration are what have made S&S Cycle a household name among Harley enthusiasts for over six decades.

A Complete, Performance-Matched Conversion Kit

One of the primary benefits of the 11-0440 kit is that it takes the guesswork out of the performance equation. S&S has engineered every component in this kit to function as a unified system, ensuring a professional-grade fit and finish on your 1999–2005 frame.

• Pre-Jetted Super E Carburetor: Set up specifically for the fuel requirements of the Twin Cam 88 engine, significantly reducing tuning time.
• High-Flow Intake Manifold: A precision-cast manifold designed to eliminate air turbulence and provide a rock-solid mounting surface.
• Chrome Teardrop Air Cleaner: The iconic S&S teardrop cover is more than just a style icon; its unique shape increases airflow while protecting the intake from road debris.
• Integrated Enrichment Device: Simplifies cold starts without the need for a messy, cable-operated choke, keeping your handlebar area clean.

Unmatched Tunability for Custom Builds

Whether you are riding a bone-stock 88-inch Dyna or a Softail with a 95-inch Big Bore kit and performance cams, the Super E is designed to scale with your modifications. It features an adjustable accelerator pump, allowing you to fine-tune the “shot” of fuel to match your engine’s specific needs and eliminate off-idle hesitation. Furthermore, the Super E is built with high-quality, ethanol-resistant components, ensuring that modern pump fuels won’t degrade your gaskets and O-rings over time. This kit is a true “bolt-on” investment that transforms your bike into a long-distance touring machine or a street-shredding cruiser with the turn of a wrench.
