Pushrods... The biggest you can fit. 11/32", or even a 5/16" but with a .105 wall.
Vettenuts went with some 3/8" double tapered or something and is very good with valve train. Maybe he'll chime in...

For the injectors id personally call Racetronix and see what they think, but I'm leaning towards the 50#.

Lol Yea I wish I would get more done I'm at a stand still right now, I need to get the trans sent out for rebuild. Then on my next off day I will put the engine and trans on k-member bolt it up to car... next off day after that I'll hook up all the wire and make sure everything is plug in. Third and final day start up and off to the tuner: )

OK got my prs in today torqued them down, spun the motor, went to check the prs and got all this play?? What could this be from? I triple check for or length...
I have no motor in car I let the lifters sit in oil for a few hours prior to install, some Are tight and snug and maybe 2-3 is doing this?? What could cause this?

Yes if you don't follow the method you can get a misread on the rocker bolts..
Because if you torque to 22 ft lbs and the lifter isn't on base lobe of cam then you end up compressing the spring a bit and get a false reading..
Then if you rotate the engine and check that same bolt, it could be a turn loose once the spring pressure is gone..
It's worth a shot to redo the bolts and see if it fixes it
I attached the method below

7.3
I got the block decked and the heads milled, using ls7 lifter
I got 9.5 turns and added either. .75-.80 preload and came up with 7.300.. I thought they were sitting in oil but I guess the never made it to the oil, did a search on loose rockers I'm thinking because they have no oil in the lifters
