I have been looking into adding a Fueler Oil Pump and adding the Gear Driven Cam to my 110. I am not looking for performance but longevity of the motor. I also want to add adjustable push rods but that voids my warranty now with Harley. I plan on doing this when my bike goes out of warranty. The Cam Tensioner I want to use is an S&S. Is there anything else I should look at having done when there in the Cam Chest. S.E. Roller Rockers?? What type adjustable Push Rods?

Some say using the Feuling oil pump and stock hydraulic cam tensioners that the tensioner shoes wear prematurely because of the extra oil pressure.

S&S cam tensioner-with gear driven cams, there shouldn't be any tensioner(s).
If you use S&S parts, I would use S&S pushrods.


Most people change the inner cam bearings and upgrade to a SE cam support plate.

really don't want gear driven cams unless you deal with the flywheel issues, stay with the chain setup,  if youran gear drive you wouldn't need tensioners anyway. just use the factory setup its pretty good. you really don't need the fueling oil pump either, the 110 has a higher output  pump that works very well. you might consider their camplate or the screamin eagle camplate thats a good thing. if you do put cams in, ask an experienced builder as to which ones, as you can actually lose power if you choose the wrong ones for you set up. consider lifters with the new cams, many choices out there, do some research, push rods are another bag of worms, e-z install, different materials different this different that, again, ask the builder thats is recommending the cams. you might want to find a shop that can lead you in a good direction, before you buy stuff, and lose your butt on it, and unless you use harley stuff, thru a dealer install, kiss the warr. good bye!!

should have asked this first, what year 110 is this?

[DESERTBEAR54]

Its a 2010 110 motor.

Food for Thought: Roller rockers will make a louder valve train. At least that was my experience with the Crane roller rockers in my 01 low rider (Zippers 95" muscle kit + extras). 560 lift gear drive cams and it was frocking noisy! I loved the power but was very unhappy with the noise which HD and Zippers told me is normal with this type of setup. I had the Rivera oil pump and had no problems with it. I used Jim's Hydra solids lifter which I would not use again.   Good luck.  

Zipper's did not reccommend the Jim's billet cam plate because they had previous problems with them. That was prior to HD and Rivera coming out with theres.


P.S. My current 09SERG is very Happy with the Fulsac Stage II map and Andrews 54 cams and Cometic .030 head gaskets! Runs great!

ok, I thought it was a newer bike all my stuff is good, you dont want the gear drive the new chain system works well much lower drag on the crank, and hyd. tensioners are lasting a whole lot longer than the old spring type, I think you do need some professional guidance in this area though. Roller rockers are only for longevity of valve train, valve guide friendly, and do remove some friction heat (tiny amount) I put them in all my motors, never experienced any more noise frome them, some cams cause that due to ramp design, I don't think you want a cam that big anyhow

there is a post on here with a motor with 35k , and tensioner wear, doesn't seem to be the norm, but food for thought. gear drive without doing the crank is not recommended though, breaks things

It is my understanding that HD changed the cam setup in '07 and moved away from older style problem ridden tensioners. The new setup is supposed to be significanly better. At least according to a few builders I spoke with. I changed my '03 Deuce to S & S 510 G gear driven cams and loved them. I opted away from the newer HD upgrade becuase of the additional costs involved.

WillyB, the change over started with the 06 dyna's.   <--- the guinea pig
