Do you have a factory service manual?

Any twin cam video will walk you through it. I have watched the S&S as well as fuel moto videos on youtube basically teaches you to build the bike from the frame up.

Easy way.

However, since the labor is free, Do some more searches to keep OEM push rods.

Since the OP specifically asked for helpful videos, I’m going to recommend PacificMike.com . He has over two hundred videos on YouTube that can be accessed there, or directly on his website. Highly recommend.

You must have a genuine Harley Davidson Service Manual.

Here is a step by step for cam change, this will give you what you need to replace lifters, but does not show how to remove and replace stock one piece pushrods (you do not need to use adjustable pushrods).

Follow the service manual closely, using videos for clarity.

Don`t hesitate to ask questions, you don`t want to be the next guy with a bent valve...
