well ducks have aligned and im getting ando to swap me cams out & change out my tensioners for me. now the plan was to go with one of the andrews conversion kits but i have now been told by some suppliers that good ole HD dont supply the parts to andrews to make these kits anymore. checked out some fueling stuff and have also been told by them they no longer supply due to this.
im guessing im not the only one to come against this and just wanting to know what path others took ? should i just lay down & get the SE stuff coz (im pretty sure HD still makes these- tongue firmly in cheek) ? or should i buy all the parts individually ? would like to know if anyone has done this as im a bit worried that i will fuck up and miss something when ordering and hence bike will sit for longer.
It's an easy conversion to piece together yourself. I have a list somewhere i should be able to find. The most important is to find cams you like that are available in the conversion style. Andrews and woods make them along with some others. Use the late model SE oil pump, with a standard late Cam plate. The harley kit is designed to keep the stock inner chain with HD cams, and is a waste imho.
The "N" cams are conversion Cams, and won't work with the SE kit. You can use the normal (99-06) TW37's though. As I said, the SE kit still uses the old style inner chain, so why waste your time ? You must have an old list, as all parts are available. Use the SE 62400001 oil pump, and 25355-06A Cam support plate.
By the way, the SE oil pumpm is a lot cheaper than the stock pump. Go figure !
Not at home , but just found this list on HTT plus I added a few extra (spacer kit, retention kit)

Killer
R U sure some parts for the conversion are discontinued. We done the conversion to Cartoon Heads bike mid this year. He got all his parts from Harley Heaven & got them sent to Perth. Maybe try these guys. BTW he is running 37N's as well.
Yep , you've got it. SE kit = 99-06 TW37 Late stock Cam plate = 37N conversion Cams
http://www.andrewsproducts.com/media/catalogs/Prices_2011-retail.pdf I think my parts came from an O/S source, so a LOT cheaper !
Parts list I got from Andrews Cams (I used and Andrews TW37N cam). I think that pretty much covered it.
