Hey,

Here is some more stuff for you Buell Guys.

Here is the newest 2001 oil pump revision on the left and the older version used in 98 thru 2000 on the right. This is a running change!!!! The part numbers are still the same!

The pickup opening at the bottom of the pump tower is larger/longer on the pump on the left for 2001. Also H-D has changed the ports inside the pump body for better scavenging.

One other way to I.D. the 2001 pump is the date code cast in the pump on the gasket surface area. The 2001 pump on the left has a "00" cast in the pump body. The older version has a "99" instead. The location of the date code pin area is on the flat gasket surface by the Green fittng.

The CV carb pic. is showing oil line fitting used as a fuel inlet. This fitting has a 1/8 NPT THD. The casting can be tapped without drilling as the hole is pretty close to tap drill size for a 1/8 NPT tap. Care must be given not to tap the threads to deeply. There is a step in the hole at the bottom of the inlet hole. Tap to just before the step. Be very careful when tapping and use a good tapping fluid doing this as the casting is very thin here and being in a hurry can fuckup a good Carb. body!!!

Doing this mod. will allow for a 3/8 I.D. fuel line. That along with a Pngel petcock will provide plenty of fuel to the float bowl. The seat needs to be modified also for racing. This will be in another mod. shown later on as it is pretty involved. You need to make a new needle and seat!

Trock Cycle makes a really cool swivel fuel inlet fitting the presses in the Carb replacing the stock plastic fitting. It rotates 360 DEG. and can account for any non stock fuel line placement.

More stuff later as time allows.

Later, Paul
