Default Too late to ask but

I was just thinking...I had my new heads milled to increase compression to 10.5:1 but I used stock length pushrods. Should I have used the 7.35 pushrods or did I just give my cam a litttle more lift?

Actually you would move the rocker arm over the tip of the valve causing the tip of the rocker to be uncentered on the valve. The lifter would take up for some of it, but only to a certain point. You can check by coloring the tip of a valve black with a marker. Then roll the motor over and see where the tip is riding on the valve. Your probally over center now. You need to be centered. I'd look into some 7.350's. They would release some pre-load also.
