sliding in the lifter dowels? condensor is giving me trouble
hello, im trying to slide in the lifter dowels i have made, the rod length is 22" excluding the handle. is this too long? the condensor is in the way right now. should i cut the rods just a bit? i want to lift up the condensor but then i would be lifting it way too much since the holes in the block are above the camshaft

thanks for the reply, the straight rod itself is 22" and i made a 90 degree bend at the end which is 3" long so should i cut them 1 inch or 2 inches? how else do other people put in the rods? the total rod length before the bend is 24"
