Oh my...……. there is a search function ya know, I don't film/take pictures of most builds (however im kinda keeping track on my 71 torino gt build) - I most certainly can start just for you! if your camplate was worn as bad as you say then you have another problem lil fella, but..... you know what - I could go round & round with ya but no pictures = crickets? yep - same to you, due to you being a guru of engines - why don't you call up Bob wood & get his take? I would imagine he might have some pics for you!!! cause I run all woods cams - smith brothers pr`s - woods lifters, etc... yes, expensive - but never had a failure or a customer complain!

Not quoting rumors - what rumor was in what I said? oh... the anodized finish? you might wanna check some other sites on that rumor big boy - cause = TRUE! & ive had a few come through my shop!

 

 

 

the proper term is dumping..or sumping like that

 

 

Almost a word for word from another site...Hmmm - your bolded statement - the cast is not as cheap as you think & a bushing less plate does fine when oil makes it to the cam hole, problem is when your motor sumps proper oil flow is not happening & thus this area is most neglected, as well & as you stated one cam / 8 valves - more point load to the cam plate journal & throw "sumping" in & whala - a worn cam hole profile! along with other issues - but hey what do I know? I don't have any pictures....

You are not correcting the problem with S&S set up! but if you think pretty fixes things then - howd you say below? this post is not for you. Good luck on your journey for a fix!

lmfao...Troll? kids car? you are a work of genital art huh? you come on here and cry about your poor "sumping" bike, then you theorize on whats causing it, maybe you read the BS at the other site & are just repeating it huh? cause almost word for word what you say has been said over there! I think you are a bladder full of hot air looking for conversation on a topic you know nothing about - so you can feel like you fit in! where's all your pics? This ball bag comes on here crying & then he becomes confrontational with those who know more - your just full of knowledge? why post when you have all the answers - then he says he gave his cam plate or whatever to a "top builder" to check out (well do tell- whatd he say), then he tests but not for others just for him (selfish he says) but when I do it he needs pictures...………...perhaps as a learning tool because he hasn't a clue!

Bump - seriously, I have tested & built many HD`s with new model year woes, take it for what its worth but Id go with the fueling set up, im pretty sure if HD is on what oil pump # 7 that the problem is not with the pump - worked on an Indian with clacking issue - now the 111 thunderstroke is a different animal all together so a local old timer with more Indian know how than me provided a helping hand (actually I provided the helping hand) - the issue from what we could figure was piston slap on to the oil pool for crank splash (maybe not the best description) but when a relief was applied to the drain plug (kinda like a expansion tank on your water tank) the clack went away! a lot of these new designs have increased internal pressures that blow out oil dip sticks & do crazy things - I don't know...…...some one smarter than us will figure out the real problem & make a fortune selling the parts to fix it. again good luck & hope you get it resolved - BTW the above post was just a retaliatory get even rant - lets clean the slate & start over huh?
