Bolt Cutters / Pushrods
Will an 18" long bolt cutter with a 3/8" capacity snip the stock push rods??

Are you working on your bike or getting even with someone?

I was surprised how easy they are to cut. Cheap bolt cutters no problem.

Be sure the lifter is not on the cam lobe when you cut it. You could push it up a little and bend a valve.

Youtube: Cam install... shows the bolt cutter in action (at about 4 minutes in)
This is a great video/tutorial
