Respect to you,I learned 30 years in 20 minutes!Thank you.

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

Glad I could help you out. Thanks for commenting.

[@josephcivita1450]

On some Shovelhead engines it's actually the slash that is the advanced mark so always check your Harley-Davidson service manual for your particular year and model

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

You are correct. That is why I always try to push others to get a manual for their bikes. Thanks for commenting.

[@hippieschoppercorner]

Good video Ralph. I did a Dyna S ignition video last summer. I've got it written in sharpie on my wall WHITE WIRE GOES TO YOUR 12VOLT SIDE OF COIL lol I fried one years ago hooking it up backwards lol

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

Thanks Hippie, we have all been there. Thanks for commenting!

[@B_Simple_2]

We love the videos Ralph! I've learned something from each one I watch. Wether it's a new tool, a better way, or the stuff that isn't "In The Manual". Your videos are Real School.

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

Thank you so much. It is comments like this that makes it all worth while. Appreciated!!

[@jackwillson8099]

Lost count of how many I installed ,and engine breaking stand 35 years ago build one still running strong lol

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

They are great ignition systems for older bikes. Thanks for commenting.

[@geoffreylowery9730]

Thanks Ralph! Been contemplating electronic ignition for my old shovel.

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

You would love the performance increase and throttle response by putting a Dyna in you bike. I use them in everything I can. Thanks for commenting.

[@tommontague5721]

Thanks Ralph, really enjoyed this one.....

As always Ralph, great information. You’re helluva good Harley wrench sir

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

Thank you. Appreciated. Thanks for the comment.

Good Job Ralph

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

Thanks glad you enjoyed it.

[@DocJonesGarage]

I've been watching Gus wrench on his bikes for awhile now, been meaning to check out your channel. Glad I did, Great vid! (engine stand is awesome)

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

Welcome! Yes the engine stand it great. I love to use it in the winter months. Gus is fun to have around. Thanks for visiting the channel.

[@dellastaylor1601]

Wow, sweet sound it is

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

Yes she runs good. Thanks for the comment.

[@SlickHeadCustomCycles]

Sorry I’m late to the party but great video Ralph I love that Motor stand and let old Gus know that we get bad winters down here in Jersey too, not as bad as you guys, but like I told you the other day on the phone we’ve got lucky this year, because it has been a warm one!!! 👍🍺 SLICK

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

Motor stand is a blessing, you should build one for yourself you would love it. Well it has not been too bad here either. Just not quite as nice as you guys. Thanks for commenting.

[@tobinlakeguideservices]

That’s a very handy test stand you have their

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

Thanks. I use it a lot and just love having it. Thanks for commenting.

[@davehardan8323]

Hey Ralph. Could you expand a little on what you mean by evo's don't like points ignition. Thanks

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

I have found that the Evo's do prefer an electronic ignition. The idle, and running, is a lot smoother than with points. I really do not have an explanation why exactly other than the design of the heads possibly, or cam grinds and lifts time. Maybe others can join in on why they think this is. Always learning. Thanks for commenting.

[@Lanesplitter]

I run points on my kick-only Evo, but I found that you need to consider all components within the ignition system for best results (plugs, plug gap, wires, coil etc). If you swap out just the electronic ignition unit, you'll probably be disappointed.

[@markmcdeavitt3092]

Great video

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for commenting.

[@terrymassey7619]

Great video Ralph! Itll warm up soon😊, we've been up and down in east Tennessee, one day 68f the next night in the twenties, go figure... Thanks 🤘

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

Thanks. Summer is coming, just no fast enough. Thanks for commenting!

[@B_Simple_2]

Hello again! I just installed the Dyna S on my wife's 1979 Shovelhead. Do you change your plug gap? I am still running the stock type 5 ohm coil, and Champion RN12YC plugs. Thank you

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

I gap them at .038" for electronic ignitions, 5 ohm is right coil. Thanks for commenting.

[@ELMARQUESO]

nice video, what advance system do you think is better , counterweight or VOES?' VOES seems to be afected by altitud and volume of vacum in the manifold, on the other hand counterweight advance woul be more acuarate because is atached to the spining of the motor...

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

I rarely use the VOES, on older machines (shovels and evo's) but I like the counter weights system. Unless you use the newer Dyna 2000i system where a cup is used instead of the weights. There are many opinions on both, and I am certianly no expert on that, so one has to do what they like , or think what would be best for their application. Thanks for commenting.

[@jameshicks9544]

Does that rotor have any side to side play ? My 79 runs like crap and I noticed the rotor is lose side to side on shaft to weights ty

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

There should be no side to side play. It should fit snug and tight on the end of the cam shaft. Thanks for the question.

[@davexboot]

What motor is that you working on ?Im looking for rocker box gaskets and that’s the same motor please help

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

It's a later 92 Evolution motor but on this one I used Sportster 1200 rocker boxes (pre 2004) Hope that helps. If your motor has the ovehead breather holes (on the heads) then it is 1992 and up. If the breather hole is in the bottom of the crank cases (no breather hole in the heads) then it is before 1992.The rocker box gaskets are different for both years. Hope that helps . Thanks for commenting.

[@thomasborger6548]

78 Shovel here with a Dyna S, if static timed the way you showed is the timing all in at 2000 rpm or is it neccessary to adjust that with a timing light?

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

It should be pretty close. I have not reajusted after setting static timing. I have found it to be fine that way, although you could try the light if you like. Thanks for commenting, good question.

[@thomasborger6548]

@@itsmytimeletsgo thanks for the reply, my concern is the old girl is somewhat retarded so I will check as you showed in the video.

[@bradfisher5680]

Good demo. In your opinion, is there a large difference in performance when using the Dyna 2000i vs the Dyna S? Is the Dyna 2000i worth the extra money?

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

The Dyna 2000i is best when you use it as a single fire application. The Dyna S is better for kicker bikes. Either will improve your performance and throttle response. Thanks for commenting.

[@thedieselpig4448]

Ralph, off topic question. I have a 1982 flh and the inner primary cracked. I see there are a couple hanging in the shop. Oem on eBay are out mostly beat and need repairs. Is there an aftermarket one that you have used with success?

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

Hi I cannot specifically recommend any one company or brand. Be wary of ebay stuff. Thats why I have some hanging. Got cracked cases sometimes. Good luck and thanks for commenting.

[@thedieselpig4448]

Thanks. Appreciate the response

[@michaelwguinnsr.3163]

Can you do an in depth video of your engine start up stand for someone who won't to build one

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

If you look back at some of my earlier videos, where I rebuilt it, should give you a good idea of how it works. Thanks for your interest and commenting.

[@MoeLarrycurly1]

On my 98 Evo I put the Dyna 2000 ignition. It doesn't replace the unit in the nose cone it replaces the computer under the seat.,.. ... On my 1980 shovel that I bought a month ago it's got this crane ignition which I'm trying to figure out it's all seems to be in the nose cone.. but I've been fixing the wiring at least trying to I mean about 75% of it is original but the rest of it oh boy...

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

2000 is a good ignition system as well, wiring can be frustrating at the best of times. Crane are not my favorites, seen to many troubles with them. I'm a Dyna man.. ha ha Thanks for commenting!

I'm still watching the video but I see it's just a electronic set of points

That is pretty well what the the Dyna "S" is. Thanks for commenting.

[@MoeLarrycurly1]

Somebody has one of those that I know for sale for a hundred bucks. Is this just a glorified hall switch

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

I have tried the cheap ones, but prefer the Dyna. If cheap is what you buy, cheap is what you get. Thanks for commenting.

[@MoeLarrycurly1]

I might want to put a set of points once I learn more about this stroker motor that I have and what all and maybe it would be better without the you know don't put the points in I don't know..

[@itsmytimeletsgo]

Evo's don't really like points a whole lot. This motor ran so much better with the Dyna. This ignition is great for them and older shovels. Thanks for commenting!
