I just picked up a new set of se-255 of e-bay for $175, now I am looking for the tapered adj.
rods and associated bearings. My indy suggested the SE tapered push rods.
I have searched the HDF and found the Harley SE p/n and the p/n for the inner torrington.

I assume that I should change the cheeep bearing in the cam plate also.
Does anyone have a p/n (or web site) for a better bearing set on the cam plate?

My new to me indy said he would charge 2 hrs. the do the cam with adj. rods and
2 hrs. to install the SE comp. plus gaskets and fluids. So at $60/hr. I will have him
do the 5K service also. I am thinking I can get ALL this for less that $1000.00.
or for sure less than $1,200.

The 2 hrs. was just the cams and adj. rods, woulld a good guesstomate for the 4 bearing
be another hr. labor? Tenn.Vol.

 

No bearings in that camplate...bushings.

 

Is this a trick question, or referring to the oilyte (sp?) bushing for the crank?

the TC 96 uses an oil bearing for the cams on the camplate side.

The inners are Torrington B-168's. Be sure to clean out the manufacturing grease in the torringtons and oil them up before installing....

 

Since he is going to have to take everything out to change the cams anyway, to pull and change the inner bearings with the B168's it will only take him a few minutes each one. As Piggy stated, there are no bearings in the TC96 cam plate. The cams ride in an oil film in the bushings.
