Quote: John, I agree. I'd change the pushrod length first, should it come to it.
Then again, Bob worked with Tom Hoover
Bob did tell me specifically when the valvetrain is assembled, and the lifter is on the base circle of the lobe, make sure the plunger in the lifter is not touching the retainer in the lifter body, but is just under it.
you'll need to assemble it and check , if you need no more than .010 worth of shim then go for it , but check the rocker contact sweep , if its ok , run it , otherwise do it right ...
