The Andrews 37 is a great all around cam. It gets better with a compression bump. It has a great idle lope.
As far as the trans drain plug goes, a 6” extension with a 1/4” Allen socket works great. Also, get one of thos flexible P.I.G. funnels to drape over the jack so the oil runs into the drain pan instead of all over the jack and the floor.

Thanks QC, why the P-38 for your picture? Someone in your family fly one during the war?

Wow, love it. My Deuce is so much fun to ride. Id like to get an original seat for it but finding an 04 CVO seat for it will be impossible. My wife wont ride on it with me so I will be able to make it pretty cool with maybe a solo seat. Very cool bike though.....
