ok, i HATE the stock pushrod tubes and their bases
Well, its not so much the tubes, as the bases you have to bolt down.
Its way too tough to get a good seal and I usually have a leak.

what are my options on easier pushrod tube installs?
I dont mind keeping the same tubes, but those triangular holders need to go.

lets hear em!
I know I can count on yall for great advice

American Sport Bike has some nice billet bases, they worked well for me with no leaks.

I purchased a set of collapsible pushrod tubes and bases from NHRS. They went in easy and look great. You will need the tool they sell, I could loan you the one I had to buy if you pay postage both ways.
