Subbed , wondering why I'm just findig this channel now after searching a specific lifter question, must have mentioned President 45 in a positive light or some other truth the oligarchs dont like , Subscribed & liked! Great videos brother! Wish your shop was closter to Plymouth Massachusetts!
Gary! Great videos! So much information. Thank you ! Can you make a video about oil pumps for Harley and the difference and what not. Again thank you for all your time!
If your Harley engine is rattling in any way or knocking(lifters on start) you need to switch oil viscosity. Thicker is not better, oil flow is better. Harley oil will wreck your Harley engine over time.
This explains a lot of the issues with the newer S&S lifters ever since they went to their “precision” line of tappets… compared directly to chinese lifters they look exactly the same and are noisy as hell when using with heavier (190lb seat pressure) valve springs (quiet with factory rate valve springs). Need a recommendation on a better lifter for this setup
You don’t mention that while there may be only one US manufacturer, companies like S&S, Feuling, Wood, can SPEC their lifters as they choose, and have that one US manufacturer (if that is indeed true) make lifters to their design. Right? Same can actually be done at Chinese manufacturers. Granted I’d prefer US made but a company can spec all aspects of manufacturing to the offshore factories. Metallurgy, internal design, whatever. They’ll build as you spec. Some good stuff can be made offshore if the company is stringent on QC…
My h.d. dealership recommended fueling over s and s for my cam swap . Replaced the whole cam chest at 56,000 on my 2012 streetglide. Cyclorama 570-2 cams. 98.7 h.p and 116 ftlbs of tourque. Screaming eagle oil pump and cam plate.
David you are so right they are not cast iron lifters I don't know why I messed up and said that I was trying to refer to the difference between something that is cast and something that is forged thanks for pointing that out hope you enjoyed the video have a great day God-bless.
The local engineering place got masses of tools in and stamp made in England on them. Picked up a '99 TC88 this Easter with 25k miles. These are great for the tear down coming this winter.
Funny how you have an opinion about a president and all your good knowledge disappeared now . Maybe people can stop making everything political ! He is talking about lifters and a few want to argue politics ! Good video man thanks for sharing your knowledge .
I haven't had my hands on any of the SS lifters in quite some time They were using the US lifters they were using the like stock replacement one not the ones with the higher hydraulic pressure that I'm speaking about.
Well I'm just a small mom and pop business owner I like to put food on my table I've spent many years countless hours and thousands of dollars trying to discover and figure out what's what with Harley Davidson motorcycles if I give everything away for free I go out of business I can't feed my family I need to sell the products to be able to put food on my table thanks so much for your feedback.
Actually they are components of the Valve Train, the cam drive pinion on the crankshaft is the component furthest from the valve, it meshes with the gear so let's say it's actually the cam, directly inline between the valve stem and the cam are (Some engines use spacers correct geometry not here in YouTubia ) a rocker arm. a push rod, hydraulic Tappet, then the cam, the cam mechanically pushes the lifer away from itself, to actuate the valve, overpowering the resistance of the valve spring, which is held fast against the seat by the valve spring, which returns the valve to the closed position at the rate determined by the cam profile, it doesn't pull, therefore it's the caboose in the valve train, the lifter pushes the pushrod, the activation or pushing in a linked linear motion system is the last inline in the relevant direction of that linear motion, the lifter is actually the push rod follower. The drive wheels or a rear wheel drive, follow the front wheels which are being pushed, by the wheels that follow

The most Impressive informative lifter video I've ever seen. I just hope the S&S 33-5353 H.P. tappets I just bought are made here in America
After 30 years of the ticky on a new 87, 91, 94, 99, and two 2001, went to Johnson Lifters and ALL TICKING STOPPED!
Damnit, Gary.. you can at least drop the name of the lifter YOU KNOW is good quality & made in the USA!! C’mon man!

Fueling makes the USA lifter . I put the Fueling HP 4000 in my bike but I should have bought the more costly ones but haven't had a problem.
Used fueling lifters in my cam swap. Did the job on my 2012 streetglide at 56,000 miles.
What’s your thoughts on Velva Touch lifter?
Gary! Great videos! So much information. Thank you ! Can you make a video about oil pumps for Harley and the difference and what not. Again thank you for all your time!
I will put that on the list to do thanks.
Thanks!

This is definitely not a cast iron cam follower so let's hear if harley or aftermarket us lifters and some of their counterparts ?

Would i need easy start cams on a stock 103? Doesn't change compression so id think not. .555lift woods 222cams
I'm not a big fan of the easy start cams you can always add compression releases to your heads
@@Vtwinheaddoctor ya i dont see the point on stock motor and heads on a 103
Did you ever install these cams? How’d it go?
@@bullast2046 woods 222. I like em
That looks like a Jim’s lifter. If so not everyone wants to spend 135$ a piece for lifters, unless it’s a race application only …
Gary who made the better USA made lifter ?
There is only one manufacturer making us lifters they make 3 different varieties of that lifter.
Gary Cave but who’s the manufacturer?
Feuling makes the USA lifter. www.denniskirt.com
The local engineering place got masses of tools in and stamp made in England on them.
Picked up a '99 TC88 this Easter with 25k miles.

Are S&S lifters made in USA. Just had an upgrade on my M8 Ultra done using S&S parts and was wondering.
I haven't had my hands on any of the SS lifters in quite some time They were using the US lifters they were using the like stock replacement one not the ones with the higher hydraulic pressure that I'm speaking about.
why don't you tell us who the US manufacturer is?
