Introduction Installation S&S® die-cast rocker cover kits for Harley-Davidson® Evolution® engines (1984-'99) and Twin Cam 88®, 96™ and 103™ engines (1999-2014) are similar, but not identical. Mounting holes are larger in the bases for 1999-2014 engines and in slightly different locations. Because of the different vent systems and mounting-bolt patterns, different rocker housing bases and rocker housing base gaskets are required for the two engines. 1.
PAGE 3
driveside 7. Place lower rocker housing gasket(s) supplied in kit on cylinder head. 4 A. 1999-up engines: One gasket required. Gasket must be positioned to cover breather channel in cylinder head. If necessary, use a small amount of gasket adhesive or sealant to hold gasket in place. Otherwise, gasket should be installed dry. 1 front 2 3 NOTE: It is possible to install gasket incorrectly. Before proceeding, confirm that gasket is placed correctly and covers breather channel.

driveside 3 6 5 4 1 Picture 5 2. Start two 5⁄16-18 x 21⁄2 hex head bolts in right (cam side) rocker support holes to temporarily hold cam-side rocker housing gasket in position. Install two remaining rocker housing screws. Gradually tighten four 1⁄4-20 x 3⁄4 screws to 10-13 ft.-lbs. Remove hex head bolts. front 2 camside Figure 2 14. Install remaining rocker support bolt(s). 3. Measure clearance between rocker housing and valve spring. See Picture 5, above. Minimum is .025".
PAGE 5
Figure 3 20. Remove retainers and collapse covers of rear cylinder pushrods. Rotate engine to place pushrods at lowest point on cam with rear piston at TDC on compression stroke. Repeat rocker cover removal and installation procedure for rear cylinder. 21. Replace any parts removed for rocker cover installation, start motorcycle and inspect for gas and oil leaks.
