    Screaming Eagle are HD's hot-up items - usually purchased to replace a stock carb. Available from HD dealers to suit specific bikes.

    Screaming Eagle is just re-branded gear, and in many cases not worth the premium they ask for, ok, all cases.

    Your going to have to identify the real brand of that carb as they have sold a number of different ones as "screaming eagle".

    I'd suggest looking for any identifying factors on the carb, if not then I'd put a photo of it on one of the big American based HD forums.

    if its a twin throat carb they where made by holley - I think they were marked for the twin cams - possibly for evos as well

    I have a complete setup for a twin cam if anybody is interested

    hd marketed them as an american made carb as an alternative to the japanese mikunui - the prime selling point being american made

    unfortunately they were not as good as either a mikuni or s&s

    harley quietlty and quickly discontinued promoting these when the general public weren't taken in by the american made line

    for my money s&s or mikuni are the best way to go

    however for the best bang for your buck you can rejet the original CV carb and fit a mild bolt in cam and get more power for less expense

    The logo just above the float bowl flange looks like Keihin
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
    those cheap ass bitches can do anything with ductape.

    I think all the Screaming eagle engines are fuel injected.
