A pushrod a bit longer would be trapped even at full lifter colapse and still allow proper adjuster hieght? What are the consequences of increasing preload that way to eliminate most of the travel from bleed down? ?
That is the way mine is set up now. I am .020 off the bottom with Morel Hydro;s my pushrods are Ball,ball
Your post kinda answers my question. Obviously your car is running well? What cam and rpm?
