I am using S&S Premium Hyd. lifters with the HL2T limiters installed in them. One of the benefits of these is to help with a bit easier starting with higher compresion motors so I will give them a try.
I powder coated the tappet covers black and instaled them and the cam cover with all new ARP hardware.
I have not had much time in the last couple of weeks to work on anything.
I did get the piston ring gaps all ground to S&S specs. and installed in the new cylinders.
Should have some time this weekend to get the cyl. on to the bike, my preferred method of doing this is to install the pistons in the cyl. on the bench and then install them on the bike.
The compression release drill jig finally showed up on Friday. It was the last piece of the puzzle that I was waiting for.
This is the first time for me drilling heads for releases. I could have set these up to machine them manually in the milling machine but decided to buy the jig. The set up time & time to machine two heads was not worth my time. This jig is very straight forward to use.
I will be using 79cc S&S super stock heads that will handle a .585 lift cam. Acording to S&S this should give me 10.3:1 compression ratio.
This is where I got to today,heads are on along with the bottom rocker boxes.
I powder coated the push rod covers black chrome and translucent purple.
I decided that I would try and use the stock CV carb that will be jetted for the motor according to CV performance and also some info that I found on forum.
You do need the S&S intake that is matched for these heads in order to use the stock CV carb. If I don't like how the carb works I will change it.
Amazing step by step. Whenever I do mods (as lame as they may be) I always debate stopping and taking pics, then say "F it I'm too oily or lazy". You're ***** deep and showing every detail. Awesome thread!
How was the clearance of the cam lobes in the cam case? Cases before 2003 many times needed clearance when the lift was much over 0.550 but it depends on the cam base circle.
