History of the Harley Davidson Shovelhead Motorcycle Engine

The Harley Davidson Shovelhead motorcycle motor is an air-cooled, 45 degree, V-twin engine manufactured from 1966 to 1984 by the company. The original models had an engine displacement of 1,208 cc (74 cubic inches). During production of the 1978 model, the engine displacement was increased to 1,340cc (82 cubic inches) for Harley's Big Twin motorcycles. You will often hear the 1978 Harley Shovelheads with the larger engine displacement referred to a the 1978½ models.

The design of the shovel cylinder head was actually an off-shoot of the Harley Panhead motorcycle's design that it replaced in 1966. The Shovel featured a slightly different look. The name "Shovelhead" no doubt came about due to the appearance of the rocker box covers that resemble the head of inverted coal shovels. The shovel engines powered Harleys up until the introduction of the EVO engine in 1984. The Harley Shovelhead engine does not have covers, as such. Rather, the motor features rocker boxes and rocker arms which pivot on shafts. The design was as efficient as it was eye-catching; it produced 10% more horsepower than the Panhead engine that it replaced. Throughout the years of 1966 through 1969 the Harley Davidson Shovelhead motorcycle engine kept the panhead style lower end. Early shovelheads with the generator bottoms are often called "slabside shovels". From 1970 forward shovelheads used an alternator bottom often termed a cone shovel.
