I have a set of Jim's semi solid lifters and adjustable chromoly push rods laying around and was thinking of installing them in my XB. They came out of a race motor I had and have just been collecting dust with a few other go fast goodies that I will probably install eventually. Any thoughts on this? The bike is an XB9R. No real engine mods yet. Micron exhaust and Daytona Twin-tec tuner. Will be installing a lightened crank and possibly big bore pistons.

If you install adjustable pushrods, don't you need collapsible tubes to get at them and adjust them?

I know these XB9 engines already rev up pretty nicely. If you really want an XB9 to rev to 10,000 RPM and put out 150HP, I would suggest getting a 1125R.

Yeah, I have the collapsible covers for them. I'm not looking for huge hp, I just have the parts here and they're doing nothing but collecting dust. So why not use them right??

So they sell collapsible covers that fit XB engines?

Does that mean the big black plastic thing could be fitted onto evo sportsters and tubers?
