What is needed besides this timer kit to install an electronic ignition?

This kit includes the timer assembly and mounting hardware. You will need to purchase the S&S Super Stock or other compatible late-style electronic ignition system separately.

Will this timer work with my stock 1960 Big Twin engine?

Yes, this timer is designed for 1964 and earlier Big Twin engines. If your engine is a generator style, you will need to use reverse timing gears for proper installation and function.

About this part

Product Details

S&S Cycle is well-known for making solid engine components for Harley-Davidson motorcycles. This Retro Electronic Timer is a prime example, designed to bring a period-correct look to your Big Twin engine while allowing you to run a modern electronic ignition. If you're building a 1964 and earlier generator-style Big Twin and want to use an S&S Super Stock or similar late-style electronic ignition, this timer is what you need to make it happen.

The timer assembly itself features a domed billet design that really captures that classic look. It's built to work with S&S and stock generator-style cases, but keep in mind that for generator-style engines, you'll need to use reverse timing gears to make sure everything functions correctly. This kit comes with everything you need to get it mounted up: the timer assembly, a mounting bracket, a coated "P" clamp, a 1/4 in. -20 x 7/8 in. flange hex bolt, and a 1/4 in. -20 hex nut. Just remember that the electronic ignition system itself is sold separately.
