Default Chrome engine kit FLST

I bought a chrome engine kit for my FLST/I , got it for 20% of MSRP ($699.00 - 20% = $560.00). You people that have the FLST's with the polished aluminum covers should look into doing it. You get the Primary cover , trans top and side, rocker boxes , cam cover, tappet blocks, and derby cover..... My aluminum started getting dark after only 10,000 miles.........It really is a night and day difference. It only takes 4-5 hours to swap out the covers.

How hard was it to install the Rocker Boxes and Tappet Blocks? Does the kit come with all of the required gaskets?

Thanks,

Not hard at all.....It helps to have the service manual handy....The kit comes with all the gaskets.....You don't get any chrome bolts with it, I just used the stock bolts, I might get the bolt covers later on.
