[RICK LAKE]

lovhamr Steve Mine length was 8.870" end to end with the correct ends. I also run hollow pushrods. This was for a Shelby block and heads with Erson rockers and crane hydro roller lifters. The Camshaft is also crane. 1020 head gaskets. This was with no compression on the plunger of the lifter. I run my motors with only .015" of plunger depression. This goes away when the motor is hot. It's all Aluminum. The other thing is if you over rev the motor with hydros and they pump up there is alot less chance of damaging the valves and piston, this is IMO. and has worked for me in other motors too. Street motors I would setup with a 1/2 turn on the adjuster for the rocker. Every motor has a different want and need. Rick L. You also may want to look at 3/8" pushrods, they are stronger with less bending ability under loads.
