What pushrod length did you use, did you torque the rockers in GM sequence or just run 'em down, how much lifter preload did you get from your measurement, etc etc etc...

It's worth clarifying that I didn't say adjust, I said torque. The GM procedure has you tightening each rocker when the lifter is on the cam's base circle, not on a lobe...this prevents excessive loading of the lifter and potentially damaging the piston and/or spring.

What was your zero-lash pushrod length measurement?
