    All In 17 minutes ...pretty good... I remember a little over 30 years ago when the first time I tried to do this it probably took me about an hour. I didn't trust myself so I kept retracing my steps...

    This is exactly what I'm going through right now... I also have solid lifters and aluminum pushrods in a 48 pan shovel.

    Sheer porn for Harley lovers. I also learned something I didn't totally understand. In my home town, there was an old man who had a 48 or 49 Harley (with springer forks) and I remember him telling me (many years ago) that he had hydraulic lifters in his - so I assumed all the HD's of those model years had the same arrangement. Your video brought HD solid lifters to my attention. This video was well-filmed and explained. Made me feel like I was right there working on the bike myself...

    Nice! But I have one question: Do I need to remove the front cylinder head if I would like to demount the distributor? This would be bad because currently my Pan is running with an e-spark distributor but I would like to replace it with an original distributor which I bought. By the way: with this video it should be easy to set the points and get the Pan running... at the moment I don't know how to adjust the e-spark distributor and this is really annoying me :D

    Sorry for a late response, you don't usually have to pull the head, there's defiantly some maneuvering required but you should be able to work it out without tearing more off!

    You set the timing mark on crank forward in the sight hole, but you said 1:00. Did you mean to say 11:00? My Pan head service manual says set mark to rear in hole, S&S instructions also. What would you think for my S&S pan head stroked motor? Q

    Yup my mistake I did mean 11 o clock. I typically set them a bit advanced. For a stroker motor you would probably want to be at 12 o clock or 11:30. the kickback from a big inch is brutal
