It stands to reason, stock pushrod length is too short. 10" does not sound out of line to me. Each engine is different. Your pics look like the roller is centered.

All my engines use longer than stock pushrods. Heck, the 292 pushrods are getting close to 12".

Good job.


When my engine builder measured the pushrods for my 292 and had them made from Smith Bros, He said they were the longest pushrods he's ever seen. lol
