Gurus, need suggestions on pushrod length
Gurus, need suggestions on pushrod length Im in the process of buttoning up a heads and cam install and looking for opinions. 243 heads milled .035 and a .040 Cometic head gasket. Trex v2 cam, Comp 850-16 lifters. Suggested preload is 70 thousandths on these lifters
From 0 lash on 7.425s Im getting 2 full turns to 22lbft.
On stock 7.4 im getting a lil over 1.5 turns to 22lbft.
Gonna go out and get a few wipe pattern checks.
What length would you guys suggest I start with?

Onebadws6 hooked me up with a set of 7.350 Pushrods to check it out. I have 7.425, stock 7.4 and 7.350 lengths now. Motor is still out of car so Will see how she looks this evening
Sounds like the 7.400 PR's will put you closer to the .070 preload and the
7.425 or 2 full turns is just over .100 preload which some people claim ends
up being much quieter even with dual springs
