fixing to go back together on my bike, installing new se cam plate, cams etc. Wandering if i should take the baisely spring out of the old cam plate and install it in the new se plate, or just leave the oem spring in there?
Thought i read where some people were getting to much oil pressure and causing wear on the cam plate at oil pump. But i cant find the page i read it now.

 

Harley s do not work as much off pressure as they do volume. I ran a stock spring in my 02 ultra until around 80,000 when I did the SE cam plate and oil pump up date and since then have run the one that came in the SE camp plate and now have over 92,000 on it still running well and I pull a 225 pound Harley sidecar. When I am on the road between bike, sidecar, gear and I pulling no less then 1,600 pounds or more.

 

The se cam plate kit has the upgraded oil pump. Do not use the baisely.

 

The Baisley spring is not necessary with the SE plate but I would take the relief valve out and polish it up a bit. Have seen several come out of the box with stuck valves.

 

thanks for the tip..ill pull it out and give it a look
