If you go with Fuel Moto the adjustable pushrods are $140 and the gasket kit is $60 which includes the bearings. If you are able use your stock pushrods you will save the $140 but will pay the extra labor of having the rocker boxes removed.

I bought the tool, used it, then sold it here on the forum. I lost $20 but that's cheap "rental" for a tool that's only used once in a Blue Moon.

I've installed the Fuel Moto 107 in the past, along with adjustable pushrods, lifters, cams, cam bearings, etc, so I know how much time is involved in removing & reinstalling the rocker boxes.

Cutting-out the old pushrods and buying the adjustable pushrods will cost far less than having your Indy remove & reinstall the rocker boxes, even at a modest hourly shop rate.

If you do the work yourself, it's pretty straight forward if you have good mechanical abilities & decent tools. You'd need the cam bearing tool, which as I said before, you could buy, then sell after you're finished with the job. The Fuel Moto & other videos are great, plus there's lots of info & help here on the forum.

I "borrowed" the bearing tool from a member. Just sent a paypal deposit, then when I shipped it back he returned my deposit.

It's a very easy job with basic tools and the videos. You'd need an inch pound torque wrench.

Have you considered just doing the entire 107 kit. I wish I had just went that route when looking back.

Jamie @ FuelMoto told me that the 107 with Woods cams, 2-1-2, Power Vision, etc. would crush a stock 110" CVO. He wasn't kidding!

I'm not a go-fast guy, but the extra horsepower & torque sure makes the doggy factory motor perform.

You think it's worth the OP going from a 103" to a 107"? Or just the CAM install on the 103" will satisfy him?

In Canada, prices are usually higher. Just received a quote yesterday for this exact mod - Andrew 57h Cams. This was my quote:
Andrew 57h cams, SE adjustable pushrods. The cam install kit included all gaskets and Timken bearing. Price was $1600 PLUS an additional $500 for a Dyno. Add 15% tax. Total was $2415 out the door. Needless to say, I passed. However, the bike is being Dyno'd for it's current Stage 1. Had the Dealer flash done last year, and it SUCKED to say the least. Lots of backfiring etc.. Hoping a good Dyno, accompanied with a SEPST will resolve the issue.

Use a power vision and upload a file for from the internet. If you go the 551 route you can download a file from the S&S website that is already dyno tuned for the cam, a/c and mufflers. Whatever pipe/muffler/ac combo you use will be close enough, then auto tune it. Saves you 500 dolla on a dyno tune. Frankly, dyno tuners are hit or miss in my book. Your lucky if you get a good one.

The adjustable push rods aren't a necessity , it just saves the labor of opening up the top end to remove / install the push rods , it is however common practice anymore.

I went from 96" to 107" which was well worth it.

Can't speak from experience on the 103 to 107 but I'd imagine it would make a huge difference as well.
