One guy I know who runs E85 has right around 15.0:1 compression.

well some good news at last. yes but i'm hesitant to reuse those lifters. 

It appears that 5/5 % gain is the number talked about in un-boosted apps .
I could see a huge downside would be keeping moisture out of the fuel.
Do you live in a humid climate ?
You would (should) likely need to flush the system with regular gas between rides .

16 hours !!!!!

Where the heck was that book when I was working on flat-rate

I think I could change a 6 speed cassette blindfolded in 6 hours LOL 🤣🤣

Don't know but I changed mine out of a carburetor model electra glide by going at it from the left side.  I remember it being tight but I was able to do it.  I believe the little screw was the biggest challenge not to drop it into oblivion.

here's a better video of the front cam. is it trash?
removed the snap ring and cleaned reassembled and clearance between cam and cam plate is .015

Check if a screw clamp was used on that line. They slowly eat through the rubber. It is supposed to be an Oteker type clamp, not a screw one.

I have replaced a couple of the 63628-00 elbow hoses due to dry cracking, but those were on 15-20 year old bikes.

My 2013 Softail Deluxe has developed an oil leak. After much crawling around, looking up and feeling around I believe I have found it. It looks like the leak is coming from where the oil drain line attaches to the oil bag, either from a shot clamp or the fitting itself. The entire drain line from the oil bag down is wet with oil which is slowly dripping off the frame. I checked the drain plug and it is not leaking nor is it wet with oil due to the protective metal circle around the plug.
Now, has anyone experienced a (welding) crack where the nipple for the drain line comes out of the oil bag?? (Or a problem with the drain line at the  oil bag?) I pray that a welding crack is not the problem and that the problem is with the drain line itself. Let me know what you think or have experienced please.
