I myself would put the ones in and try them... if
they are too short they wont get oil into the cup
but the oil should be shooting up and hitting the
end of the rocker area... the reason you dont want
alot of thread sticking out is the side load when
the valve is open.
Put them in and presurize the oiling system while
turning the engine over and see if they are getting oil....
I would waste $120 for a 1/2 thread unless they werent
getting oil....... JMO
