Andrews 57H install question
This question was probably asked before, if you can lead me in the correct direction I appreciate it!
I'm in process buying remainder of parts for my cam upgrade on my 2012 FLHR Road King for this winters project. I'm going with #09250668 Andrews 57H cams, S&S installation kit for chain drive camshafts #106-5929, S&S tappets #330-0175, S&S pushrod kit adjustable w/covers & keepers #93-5095.
My question: How many flats is the correct adjustment to give proper pushrod adjustment to center of tappet?
I'm aware adjustments (flats) rely on thread count, per-inch and unaware what thread count S&S uses so I'm relying on the experts input setting my project on correct specs.
Thanks, B Bop

Here is a link to the instruction sheet. But for the sake of brevity they are 32 TPI and would require 4 turns or 24 flats. I used turns when I did mine because my memory is too short to remember how many flats.

FWIW, Pocono Mountain HD was pretty high on the Andrews 57H, they did mine a few years ago, getting good numbers.
Well, come to find out this past weekend they haven't been using that cam for almost 2 years now.
They are using the TTS Cam, comes on at 2000 rpm's. Same HP increase as the 57H but the torque was like 112.

Got it, thanks! One last question: I have the S&S tappets #330-0175 can take these apart and install limit traveler spacers, what is the performance advantage over the stock version?

Forget that idea. Limit travel spacers intended for racing applications.
