So while mocking up the crane 1.6 irons and manton pushrods, I discovered something that a lot of you probably already know. The combo of 3/8 pushrods, low deck block, stealth heads, and 1.6 rockers equals lots of cutting for pushrod clearance. If I had it to do over again, I would have gone with 11/32 pushrods and made my life a little easier.

At least at .095 wall, these Mantons should be be able to handle any future cam upgrades.
