Split Harley Shovelhead Engine Rocker Boxes

Lots of original Harley Shovelhead engines (manufactured from 1966 to 1984) and 3rd party Shovelhead type engines in a variety of bores are running today’s bikes. A favorite way to customize them has always been to split the rocker boxes. A new choice comes from Bare Knuckle Choppers who designed them not only to look good but also to reinforce strength by adding two ribs on the bottom side. The removable cover plate allows you to inspect and adjust your rocker arms without removing the entire head. The assembly is intended for use with either S&S or JIMS Evo-style tappets, which provide oil through the pushrods instead of an external oil line. Show Polished. Manufactured By Niedwick Machine and distributed by Bare Knuckle Choppers.

    I have had shovelheads and even some that had split rocker boxes.
    There was a lot of work in modifying them and did not include the cover option.
    I am happy to see that there are people that are continuing to come up with new and improved products.
    CONGRATULATIONS and Please Keep Up The Good Work.
    There are a lot of people that appreciate what you are doing.
