Not yet, but very soon my friend!! I was going to install the cams, lifters and adjustable pushrods this weekend, and went down to my indy Tims shop yesterday to see if I could borrow the tool needed to pull the inner cam bearings. He told me no problem....but, also said that he's been a little slow lately, and if I wanted, he would give me a deal and only charge me 2 hours labor to do the job!! I had to take him up on it, he said he can do it this week on Fri. or Sat..... I'll upload my map and have V&H edit in the changes for the cams before they're installed, then flash the new map before it's fired up!!

I've got everything needed for installation, the lifters and cam spacer kit arrived. The spacer kit comes with all 5 sizes. When I did the cams on the Breakout, I waited to see which one I needed, then found out my local HD dealer had to order it. I got held up for a couple days, so I wanted to avoid that this time....


SORRY MAN BACK AT IT,just going to do what we talked about, before I end up with 3k of work in my motor and no bike for the summer....I saw a tappet s&s spacer kit, limited travel? did you use that as well, these spacers are for the cams? I guess for valve tp piston clearance? or valve to valve clearance? do I need both the S7S spacer kit is ill link it
http://www.ebay.com/itm/S-S-Cycle-Hy...RYcxA6&vxp=mtr

than I saw this fueling spacer kit which I'm assuming is similar to what your showing
http://www.ebay.com/itm/232183858720...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

do I need both? or the lifters have it covered?

You just want the S&S Premium tappets, NOT the "High performance" with the HL2T travel limiters....and the cam spacers may or may not be needed to line up the teeth on the cam with the chain, depending on the new cam. I needed the .130 spacer with the Andrews cams in my Breakout, but didn't need a new spacer for the S&S 583c cams in the Rocker. Its best to have them on hand in case you need one, I got them from HD.

Hahaha, thanks man!!! I got the headlight housing from Eastern Performance Cycles. I'll see if I can find a packing slip with the part #

I do think it looks a lot better than the stock housing...

A year or two after getting my rocker the powder coat on my oil tank started to form those same hotline cracks. Had it repainted under warranty by the stealer.
