Anyone have a testimonial about the Head Quarter Black Ops Lifters? Have seen some very good things said about the Wood Directional Lifter and the Black Ops looks like good competition on paper but would like to hear from a user. Thanks.

 

I bought a set when they first came out like 3-4 years ago i guess. Ive been waiting for the OE ones to crap out. They havnt yet, so i just put them in a jar of Amsoil.

wish i could be more help, but there other products have been top notch.

 

I put them in whan I did my HQ95st last year with no issues. Have you checked out their blog on priming them and such?

 

That's cool, I just checked it out. Thanks

 

I've been using them for over 1 year. Very quiet and no problems so far. The Woods units look good as well. Still hear of very few problems with stock HD B lifters for that matter.

Very good item, I ran them in my 120" for 35k miles without issues, and they are going in my current 107 build.

 

Thanks for posting Zach. I'm going to put a set in when I do my build.

I've been hearing good things about the S&S quicky pushrods. What do you think about them?

 

If you are a nimbled finger person and willing to do slow good work, folowing directions sent, the Smith Brothers Easy pushrods are the best for Quickie type pushrods.

Very well designed and outstanding machine work. Only tough the first time install, for me anyway.

Was tough on my old 70 year old fingers but I did it.

More and more I think a woman would be very happy as a Motorcycle Mechanic. Talking about small fingers, fit anywhere.

 

Gunny, in your oppinion if the heads are coming off are non adjustable pushrods better since they are lighter and less parts or is it a non issue?

 

Woods lifter is a completely different design. One cannot compare the two designs.

I cannot say what would fit your needs better.
