Hello everyone, I'm having some trouble getting the correct pushrod length and could use a little advice. my current setup is as follows:
Edelbrock 7122 Cam Lift .496/.520
Edelbrock Performer Intake
Edelbrock E-Street heads part number 5023
Comp Cams Roller Rockers 1.6 ratio
Fel-pro head gaskets Part Number 1011 (I believe these are the standard thickness)
Engine Bored .30 over but this shouldn't matter - including for completeness' sake
I obviously need to purchase new hardened pushrods for this, but I'm having a hard time finding what size. I ordered and received a length checker/tester rod but the nuts on it will not fit through the pre installed guideplates on the heads so I cannot use it. Except for ordering several pushrods of varying lengths to test does anyone have this setup or have any other ways for me to measure my pushrod length? I have a set of stock hardened pushrods that I ordered before realizing that I might need a different length - these show 6.80 as a length.
