If you use adjustables with a bolt-in cam and then have to cut them out you wasted your money...I won't fit adjustables with a bolt-in cam even if the customer asks me to....I am not that lazy...Lol!

 

I did not buy or install them.
They were in the bike when I bought it.
I need new lifters so I think I'll do it the easy way.

 

I just went and looked for a Crane 300 cam and I couldn't find one.
I was trying to find the specs on it.

Do you happen to know what the specs are???

 

I think it is the 300-2b.

 

I put the Screaming Eagle quick install push rods in my 99 FXSTC when I changed out the inner cam bearing. That was 30,000 miles ago with no problems. But I am running the stock cam and lifters.

 

I ordered a set of the S&S pushrods and I will install them and new lifters when they arrive.

Thank you all.

 

Did you get adjustable rods or the quickie adjustable rods by s&s ??

 

Quickies.

No point in changing the pushrods if I have to get into the heads.

 

I purchased a set of S&S quickies.
When I removed the old pushrods with bolt cutters I pulled the front lifter block and lifters. I saw that the rear exhaust lobe on the cam was scratched up.
I guess it is replacement time.
The cam is not a Crane as the original owner told me.
It is an Ultima MW520. 114-68 on the chart below.
The Midwest and Ultima sites do not have any dealer lists.

Where can I purchase Ultima products?

Since I need to replace the cam, can someone recommend a replacement cam.

My current sweet spot is at about 2800 RPM. If I keep it around there it will pull like a train but it's a little weak in torque in the lower rpm ranges.
89" stroker.
Super G carb.
Edelbrock manifold with heads ported to match the rectangular ports on the manifold.
I have a six speed transmission.

I can't remove the rear lifter block because one of 12 point bolts is rounded.
I used a 12 point Snap-on socket to remove all of the other bolts but it just wouldn't remove the last one.
It is on the front of the rear block, closest to the cylinder.
The cylinder heads are still on.

Any suggestions on how to get that bolt out.

I think you are going to want an Andrews EV27 cam or an EV13.

Most people run the EV27 but some like me run the EV13. They both are great. The EV27 sacrifices a little bit on the low rpm to get more out of the high rpm. The EV13 sacrifices a little bit on the high rpm to get more out of the low rpm.

Heavier bikes, or bikes that are regularly ridden two up / heavy load do better with the EV13. Light bikes with a solo rider / light load can use an EV27.

You really can't go wrong with either of these two.

Don't forget to install a new Torrington cam bearing.
