Introducing Jims® Hydrosolid Tappets. This amazing tappet has broken the barriers of previous tappet designs. This tappet performs like a hydraulic tappet from
start up to about 5500 r.p.m., and then turns into a solid from 5600 r.p.m. to your set r.p.m. rev limiter. At the same time it becomes a solid, it also adds about
3-6 more usable horsepower. What this all comes down to is that about the time your springs start to surge and go into harmonic distortion and the tappet
rollers start lofting off the back side of the cam, you can be at ease knowing that your JIMS® Hydrosolid Tappet will not pump up allowing your valves to hit.

SPORTSTER EVOLUTION AND BUELL 1200 CAMS
Andrews Products performance cams are available for all EV Sportster engines.
Many of the cams listed below will run to 6500 RPM with stock hydraulic lifters.
H/D hydraulic lifters are very proven units. We do not recommend solid lifters.
For lower lift Sportster cams, cam base circle sizes are same as stock, so stock
pushrods can be used (except V9 or BV). Adjustable aluminum or chrome-moly
steel pushrods are also available. To run 91-99 style cams in a 2000 or later
engine, a 46 tooth drive gear can be installed on the earlier ‘91 style #2 cam.
The #2 drive gear can be pressed onto the #2 cam but it must be correctly
timed.
