I have heard(to me) Terry say that the pushrod rubbing against the head is not a bad thing, it helps stablized the pushrod like a guide plate does ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shock.gif) After having to replace three single tapered pushrod on a customers engine due to the exhaust pushrods rubbing enough to not allow oil into the cups and burning the tips up I ground the head and the block to make sure the pushrods had enough clearance to rotate freely when the valves where closed ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbs.gif) Is there any reason to not grind the head or block to run the best pushrod?
