Default Q for AP chris and others

If you had a stock low mile strong running Ls1 and it was slightly ticky (lifter preload on the light side)Like alot of them. And you ordered a set of heads shaved .020 and a mild cam wouldnt you figure stock length pushrods would more than likely the what you would start with?Thanks

Yeah, it sounds like a stock length pushrod would be good.

You getting closer?

Gonzo, most of our heads use the 7.350" length pushrods that is why I sent them to you. When you get them please check your preload, if they are not the correct length I will send you out the right length. Just let me know.

Thanks
