I think you'll be just fine but for s&g's get some putty on a piston and torque a head down and see what you got!

When you say set the pushrod length, you mean to zero lash length right?

Set it to the length pushrod you will be using

Pretty clever way to check p-v there guy.

ya, I find it so much easier than dealing with clay on the piston then pulling the heads on, off, on, off trying to get a good mark then having to pull the clay off the cylinder cleanly.
Before doing it this way I just about lost my **** and threw the cylinder head through the windshield lol

Ok, I just did both the clay on piston method and the "gum method" and got roughly the same results for both, 0.072" for the intake and 0.167" for the exhaust.

I dunno what the hell I was doing before but I used a dial indicator this time with a checker spring and got significantly more clearance, which made more sense as my valves were sunk in with the valve job.
