Riding Season Done For Me

Well, I brought the cams in to get the pressed on. While I was there, I asked him about what clearance was set at. I was told .625 if I understood correctly. For some reason he didn't write that number down??? I said ok, I will call tomorrow, don't press them on until I know. I was also told that .050" is most desrirable. I asked if a cam that is only .013" in total lift larger than when the heads were done would really interfere or not. He said no. So, I will have those back tomorrow.

Here are a couple of pictures with the cam in place just to check case clearance. Paul suggested that at least a .060" should be free, well, I didn't have a .060" feeler gauge. Paul suggested to use a credit card. That fit no problem. Good to I guess.

The Glide has been stitched up and is breathing. Best part, no left over bolts.

That's the only time "left overs" aren't good!
Now go get rid of that PMS

Start up video is on my wall on Facebook. Multiple pictures as well.

Got a chance to test the new cams. I like them but there is some carb work that needs to happen or redo the MAP.

Here are some pics as it was going back together.

Setting the oil pump. Verifying timing. Making sure no o rings were bound or rolled after push rod tube install.
