Gotcha, I think I was half asleep when I posted (I was thinking Evo...).
Even with an Evo, you don't have to pull the rockers. I just swapped out a high lift woods cam last night. took about 2 hours...

what the three per inch of your fuel moto pushrods? here's the S&S website.. It'll give you a chart with all the different threads per inch so you an calculate what you nee. 32 tip is 4.5turns or 27 flat. etc.. it's all there.....
Finished up I did four turns plus 2 flats for a total of 26 flats and it made a huge difference in valve noise. Bike runs good and is extreamly quiet now. The fuel moto pushrods were simple to install and I am glad I went with them thanks for the help
