Hey Rick, this one is getting a solid street roller.

The rocker type, and the ratio is probably the biggest thing.

If I'm looking at it correctly, the shorter the "arm" on the pushrod side (higher the rocker ratio), the more likely the pushrod will hit the bottom of the tube.
At least it seems this way comparing 1.52 to 1.55+

I've got good piston to valve clearance (now that I'm on my second cam), my intake valve relief has a little extra to accomodate the Edelbrock valve, so
that all seems good to go.

Pretty small bump in the road really, but something tells me I'm not the first to encounter this.
