Hmm is my PR lenth right? I just put on my TEA 1.5 5.3's that were milled .010. I was checking the PR lenth and there is about .080 lash. Is this ok? when i bring the rocker to 0 lash, I can get 2 full turns untill the rocker bolt bottoms out with 7.4's. Is this the right size pushrod? The lifters are LS7 lifters.

They are just scared ...for good reason.
Stock rockers get torqued down. You should be measuring pre-load instead of lash.
Either you're way off track or you're not giving enough info about what you've got there.

Yea, you just crank them all down. No lash to check unless your running a solid roller.
You need to look at the tip of the rocker arm position on the top of the valve stem when the spring is half way compressed. The rocker tip should be in the middle of the valve stem. It's pretty hard to see where it is since they are not roller tipped rockers but you should be able to tell.
