I started tearing my shovelhead motor down.

Somehow a post got broke off of one of the heads. I just need to get that welded back up, paint the jugs and the heads, and reassemble.

  2. What post? Are you talking about the studs that hold the rocker box down? If thats the case, don't weld it. They unthread. We can probably find you a new one.

  3. Yeah that one, it broke from actual head. It won't be a problem to fix.

  4. I was thinking that myself..."Post, what the hell is he talking about?" The rocker box studs thread into the head, they aren't welded in.

    So what's inside of her? Stock 74"?

  5. 3 5/8" pistons? I see no teflon plugs instead of retaining rings, so they are either cast or something other than S&S. Pull the timing plug and read the wheels and I'll tell you what you've got.

    I think...you oughtta be beaten for some shit like that.
