I then found out a considerable amount of grinding was required to even get the push rods to seat in the lifters. Mine were the first batch, so things might have changed. I wish you far better luck than I had. I hope Pro Comp didn't copy the Victors TOO closely.

Whether it's enough is yet to be determined.

As far as the pushrod grinding we havnt got to that stage yet, we are almost certain that there will be some clearancing necessary. but nothing major. I have to say Iv heard alot of mixed emotions with these heads but for the price I'm not concerned with alittle bit of extra work. Im very excited to get this together. As far as that water pump, that is off a 62 413! with electric pump! 5748889-phpk31SrzPM.jpg (62 downloads)

If the ProComp rockers are really only .400", there may be some serious pushrod clearance issues to deal with.
