No problem at all doing that. The one thing you would need to check is that you have the newest 8 lobe suction pump in your oil pump, some '19's got them while others did not. If you do not have that then replace the oil pump with the HD upgraded pump.

The only thing I would do differently is to replace the Harley stock lifters with S&S, Feuling or Woods lifters. I always use new lifters on a new cam, and Harley and even S.E. lifters don't have an impressive track record.
