Thinking about a NEW rat rod build...
#51
It’s been a while, my mechanic had me on the back burner but I’m really pushing to get the project done in time for the riding season. Crank and heads are sent out, and a couple weeks away from being done.
John - I ended up spending (possibly wasting) the cash on that S&S hydraulic kit for piece of mind. But I get what you’re saying... I managed to get a patina on those billet lifter blocks by blasting and chemically blackening them. This way they wont stand out too much against the patina I’m trying to keep.
Regardless, I’ve been told I can use the parts from an S&S or Ultima oil pump, but still the original pump cover / gasket. Has anyone every done this before?

OK i will bite this question
if you don't want or have a phobia about a little oil on a riding shirt you need a gull wing - stop it oil is the ultimate badge of honor - and we sell a perfume called O DAY LUBE for the twinkie riders so they can smell like us at the harley davidson dealer boutique haberdashery buying under wear that say eff housework
OEM original 4 speed transmission has a 2 1/2 inch bushing inside of Hi gear that rides on the transmissions main shaft - SO DOES - andrews hi gear and BAKER hi gear
and at some time in the future they will all leak ((( its not IF its WHEN ))) because you can does not make it better with more money - think on that
