Andrews 26G cams in my 88"
I have a 01 Heritage (fuel injected) and Im bout to put it in the shop to get the cam chain tensioners replaced. Im gonna get that kit that Harley came out with that replaces the timing chain,gears,tensioners, and oil pump and while I had the mechanic in there I was thinking that I can go ahead and put gear drive cams in with adjustable push rods..I figured it wouldnt really cost anymore labor since all he would have to do is slide the old out and slide in the new (I assume)?????I have been looking at the Andrews 26G cams..they seem to be good all around...Anybody have expierience with them? and does my statement above seem accurate?? I assume I can use the same tensioner kit from harley when replacing the cams also also?????????? thanks guys

The gears are quite a bit more expensive, but if you are weighing that against the cost of updating the spring tensioners to hydraulic, the price difference might not be that bad. Way more expensive in parts vs. going back with the stock spring tensioners.

No disrespect intended to rkharry but changing out to Torrington/full complement style is totally unnecessary, at least that's what Andrews Cams thinks. Change them yes but they believe the oem style is better and that is what they supply, so you can listen to scuttlebutt or take the word from the industry leader. Don't take my word for it, contact Andrews for yourself and see what they say.
