I am getting things gathered up for a Woods cam installation on my 05 Standard. I am deciding between the Crane time savers, S&S quickie, and Andrews EZ install pushrods. I can get the Andrews quite a bit cheaper than the other two brands. They all appear to be made out of the same grade of chromoly. Any thoughts? Thanks.

 

What cam..?

If possible i always use stock or +/- solid(S/E) pushrods.. If not i use S+S or smith brothers exclusively.

 

my springer has the V thunders and never had problem.my roadking has new set of jims aluminum pushrods,cant say good or bad yet.I would say as long as its good name brand you ll be ok

 

Andrews EZ install, here. Chromoly, not aluminum. About 20,000 miles on them, no complaints.

 

I was going to use the TW-6G Woods cams. It is a bolt-in cam that is supposed to have power from idle-5500 rpms. I thought this would be a simple upgrade while checking the tensioner pads, since I don't want to get real deep into the motor yet.

 

S&S for me like them so far......

 

You can get the SE adjustable pushrods, with the o rings and covers for about $110 through Zanotti's. This is the route I think I am going... that way, I have the shorter tubes, which I read makes adjusting the pushrod much easier...

 

when I did mine. I used a crane 310 with screamin eagle adjustable push rods.
installed new lifters at the same time. and bored .010 over also sent heads out
for porting and flow match.
my thoughts of what harley should have done now it is a 1998 flhtse2
