This 2210 cc Screamin’ Eagle Crate Engine delivers an impressive 130 horsepower and 143 ft-lb (194 Nm) of torque and is equipped with 135 Stage IV badging on the cylinder heads and timing cover.

This engine is packed with features, including Screamin’ Eagle Extreme CNC-ported cylinder heads, SE8-517 high-lift cam, high-compression forged pistons, high-performance cam bearing, high-performance tappets, patent-protected 4.31″ steel sleeve cylinders, 4 5/8″ flywheel, 68 mm throttle body and CNC-machined 68 mm intake manifold, 6.2 g/sec fuel injectors, and Screamin’ Eagle Pro-Billet Cam Plate and Oil Pump.

In the USA, this mammoth engine is available for purchase complete with up to a two-year manufacturer’s warranty when dealer-installed within 60 days of vehicle purchase through the Custom Coverage program.
