I wouldn't say that. Even when you use original Harley parts you can run into problems. Now and then I find the wrong parts in a box, sometimes it might be on the dealer but others I'm convinced the package was not opened.
Some of these parts have such minute differences that it is real hard to tell unless you work with them all the time and pay attention. In the few ocasions I pick up parts from the dealer personally I always open the boxes and look at every gasket. On the TC's in particular a single O ring can cost you a engine job or even a set of cases.

My bike is a 2001. When the factory made the change in 2000 I think James Gaskets should have corrected the advertised years they say the kit will work on. Dennis Kirk should have set up some kinda red flag when that part number came up when I placed the order over the phone. They ask you what year bike the parts are for when you order.It was their Tech guy that said their records showed that they were aware of the change and that I was not the first to report a problem.
