Hi I am doing a 107 build on my 2012 FLHTK, I have the Woods TW 555 cams & I am looking @ lifters & pushrods as my next purchase. I have narrowed the pushrod choices down to the S & S adjustable #93-5095, S & S quickie adjustable #106-6051, Fuel Moto adjustable & SE adjustable. I have the SE adjustable in My other bike. The S & S doesn't make sense unless doing the quickie but I have read the Quickie might not be as strong as the regular, who wants to have to pull the lifter covers if you don't need to, am I missing something here. I just replaced the cam chain tensioners on My 2001 95" Wide Glide & the SE pushrods were difficult but can be pulled out without removing the tappet covers. I have read a lot & S & S seems to get the nod a lot but I am curious about the Fuel Moto, less cost & reuse the stock covers but I have read almost nothing about them.
Thx for your input.

FM are Smith Brothers. I would probably go with Smith Brothers. I have SE tapered now and have not had 1 issue with them.

 

We use S&S valvetrain components here, and for good reason.
Smith will scribe/etch anyone's name on their pushrods.

There is more to pushrods than ease of installation and removal. Like flex and longevity. I went with Smith Brothers non-quickie adjustables (sold by GMR and, yes, silkscreened with their name, so what?), but S&S non-quickie adjustables also get good recommendations from a lot of builders. Just make sure that they don't rub on the inside of the pushrods covers.

 

Hey Scott what are you're thoughts between the regular & quickie S & S
Pushrods pro's & con's
Thx Bob

 

the smith brothers pushrods are a real pain in the a$$ to adjust with the small holding fixture. sold mine and installed S&S regular adjustable pushrods with the new push rod tubes. much nicer setup. also have used screaming eagle adjustables with no issues.

 

Only the "quick install" version like the ones sold by FM. The standard SB pushrods adjust just like the S&S.

 

The Quick installs cost a tick more, but are easier than than the regular S&S.
We stock both here, but use the standard in our day in/day out custom engine building here, for Shovels, XL's, Evo's and T/C application.
We've seen a lot in this industry in the past 30 years..........S&S is our choice.

vote for S&S here too,use the quickies

 

Got the S&S regular here as well with new tubes. Nice set and can't go wrong w/ S&S.
