Im a non motor builder also. First time for me.

As far as pushrods. The bike had cams and adjustable pushrods. I will probably buy the s&s quick install or ez install whatever they are called. They collapse all the way where you dont have to remove the liftet blocks.

Thr old ones had a slight wobble. Few people said they were still good but im just buying em. What the hell im this far.
