I started a thread earlier about a noise problem that I am having. I still think it is the push rods. Long story short I tried a different set of push rods but they where not any better. I am ruling out the lifters at this time because the bleed down rates are consistent on all of them. Besides if I had a lifter problem I would think that they would make more of a clatter throughout a wider RPM range. I did pull them out and checked the bearings. All looks good and they are new.

Anyway my question is: Can I put in a set of standard non adjustable (stock) push rods??

The cam is a Andrews EV27 (stock base circle diameter), however the lifters are not stock HD, I think they are SS stock replacement. I don’t have any information on how different manufacturers design lifters. Do...

Never been to Oregon and I'm planning a trip to there in July. If anyone can give me some cool places to visit or ride I'd appriciate it.
Our plan now is to Start in Redding,CA and work our way up the center of the state, across to the coast, down the coast and back to redding.
