-**Cam cover bushings**\\ +See [[techtalk:ref:​tools147#cam_bushing_reamers|Cam Bushing Reamers]] ​in the Sportsterpedia. \\
-The reamers for the cam cover bushings (#1, #3 and #4) need to be chamfered (chucking) reamers. \\ +
-The ends have a short chamfer that will enter the blind bushing bore and not hit the rear of the bore before finished cutting the bushings. \\ +
-The reamer for #2 cam can be a tapered bridge reamer on models with nosecone ignitions. \\ +
-(the hole for #2 cam is open  to atmosphere so the reamer has plenty of room to extend past the bushing) \\ +
-Else it will also need to have a chamfered end. \\ +
- +
-Cam cover reamer sizes: \\ +
- +
-9/16" for the pinion shaft bushing. \\ +
-1-1/8" for #2 cam bushing. \\ +
-11/16" for #1, #3 and #4 cam bushings. \\ +
- +
-**Case bushings**: \\ +
-A single reamer is all that is needed for the case side bushings as all the cam bushings are the same size in the case. \\ +
-The normal way of reaming the case bushings is to split the case and ream case bushings by using the cover bushings as a guide. \\ +
-This will require a bridge reamer with a tapered end. \\ +
- +
-If reaming the case bushings from the outside of the cover bushings, you'll need a chamfered (chucking) reamer with a short chamfer. \\ +
-The long taper will go in and touch the flywheel before the blades have a chance to cut into the reamer. \\ +
-So reaming the case side bushings will not be possible with a bridge reamer from the outside of the cover. +
- +
-Case bushing reamer size: \\ +
- +
-11/16" for #1 thru #4 cam bushings. \\ +
