Wow it's cool to be in the presence of celebrity's. Good video and good idea on the spark plug/dial indicator. Seeing how I need one anyway I may look at that one mentioned in Five Five's thread from S&S. Any excuse to buy tools. :whoop:

Maybe a group buy on S&S TDC Dial indicators. Anybody listening?
S&S TDC tool doesn't have an indicator ...

Here it is $27.00

How the hell does that work. Looks like you screw it in and spin the back tire and when you hear metal to metal you stop. Kind of like when my wife backs the car out of the Target parking lot.

Not to beat a dead horse and it appears this thread has moved on but my last comment on the subject:D
Pay very close attention to the guys that have done it... "Dude".
Always it would be silly not to "Dude"

It's not that I don't appreciate your efforts, I do. It's just that a flawed procedure is included in the compilation. Do everyone a favor, revise the pdf with an upfront warning how some asshole on bigdogbiker.com jumped your shit about the pushrod adjustment part. Offer up that if they follow the flawed method and end up with a LOT of loose lifter noise, then maybe the asshole was right and the pushrod adjustment using a dial indicator might be worth looking into.
Again it's not my information. Feel free to edit the original information as you see fit. http://www.bigdogbiker.com/forums/how/27075-585-cam-install-09-k9.html#post384574

If you don't understand what my reference to "lemmings" means then Google it. (hint: it's not related to the comedy Lemmings)
I know what a lemming is.

And I have never denied that I can piss people off. If this thread keeps 1 guy from bending pushrods (due to poorly adjusted pushrods), then I am happy.
I'm not pissed off:whoop: and I hope you will be happy

You should be happy as well.
I am always happy and it's not due to you. :D
