Well, that's comforting. NOT

This one is on the early EVO.

Removed the kicker cover from the tranny. I am wondering why there is no slinger on the push rod and if it matters. The manual shows it.

Hey Mark. You're welcome to drop by anytime today. You might have a few thoughts to give on my rebuild. 0410435635

Yeah, did not even cut the ends straight. Will check the spring lengths. Maybe they are a bit weak and need replaced. On the other hand maybe the guy had to raise the front end a bit after he changed the tanks. Cause if Fat Bob tanks are typical, these have got to be Obese Bob tanks. I reckon I coul...

No comments please. Anyway, new seals, reinstalled and refilled without further problem. Then I put on ...

Anyone have drawings for HD engine stands?

I have seen a guy selling split oil lines for the Shovelhead. The claim is that it resoles the issue of oil starvation on the front cylinder. I suppose this is mostly at idle. The kit is said to be brass and comes with brass push rod covers too. Not sure I care about the brass that much. Any one hav...
