I'm here. Changed my login, too long to type. Was axbycz321. I wonder how many won't
bother to register over here.

This board allows post editing too.

cant imagine we will have the amount of folks we had before[close to 30000] as alot joined to ask a specific question or sell something,so i would think a thinning of the herd is a good thing, i hope alot that rejoin will use their old handle so we all dont have to so to speak start over.im curios as to how much action we will see on the v rod and buel boards as there wasnt a whole lot going on there before.

   I hope we don't lose anyone.  I think some are hanging back to make sure this is the final landing zone.  It got a little confusing over the last few days, I bookmarked so much info I need to clean it all up now.

I have a shovelhead s+s514 cam s+s e card 92 shovelhead motor with a evo oil system, delkron engine cases s+s five speed trans and the push rodes covers are not sealing in the front cycl. when the motor is running u can see the cover moving up and down in the front exah. side pleas help Thanks

Lew

Steven, sounds like the pushrod is rubbing inside the tube.  Pull it apart and have a look.  Might be a broken tube spring allowing things to rub and leak.

.. steve .. I'm with Lewy on this one ..
.. sounds like the pushrod is making contact with the pushrod tube on the front exhaust ..
.. front exh. is always the worst for this cuz of the angle .. if you have the S&S pushrods, the cure I'm told is to shorten the small (upper) tube by about 1/4" .. the reason is cuz the "too big to clear" locking nuts on the phat pushrod is clipping the bottom of the upper tube .. shortening the upper tube enough to clear will depend on the cam lift you run, but 'bout 1/4" is a good starting point ..
.. you might get a good idea 'bout how much to remove by kicking the motor thru while holding JUST the upper pushrod tube in place by hand to see what it'll take to miss the nut when that valve cycles thru ..
.. removing the spark plugs will make that easier .. if you have no kicker, you can roll it thru with the rear wheel off the ground in gear ..

.. the idea is to shorten the top pushrod tube to make room so the locking nut misses when the pushrod is pushing up, but not to shorten the upper tube too much, to the point of making the tube assembly too weak to stay together good ..

.. good luck,
nomad
