RE: adjustable push rods?
that is a yes and no unless you want to take the heads off you need adj. pushrods
also different tubes. just cut the old ones in half to get them out .. tubes are to small in dia. for the adj so need new ones that are bigger.

You dont have to take the heads off, \\; You only have to take the tank off to get to the rocker boxes. \\; I had installed adjustables with bad results, 2 of them broke. \\; After all the time i spent trying to get them adjusted correctly, \\; I decided to switch back to stock pushrods, \\; It only take about an extra 1/2 hour to take the tank off and get to the rocker boxes. \\; Save yourself the hassle and just reuse the stock ones.

also, \\; you dont have to worry about the adjusters backing off when your on a 500 mile ride somewhere! \\; Thats definitely a plus. Adjustables for the most part are OK and completely reliable but I just prefer the stockers. \\; Much less to worry about
