I "planned" on using a solid flat tappet but it looks like that idea may be changing as we speak
Maybe we can get some more info in the next couple days to help decide.

I don't know what good this info is but the push rod clearance on the port is 7* ground into the port. ps,I double checked my rocker offset with the 7* on the pushrod and I would need .8025 total offset to be o/c on the v-stem.with my adjustable pr I will check with things mocked up. edit:A 9.5" pushrod offsets .875 at 7*

get crazy with the offset on the rockers, it eill increase the side load on the lifters
Backward - the offset should make the pushrod vertical to the tappet axis with no side-thrust.

the angle of the pushrod is only 3* installed,any grinding will be at the top of the port and there is plenty of meat there.If you have any question I can remeasure.
