Crane Gold Race 1.8 RR and 7.250" pushrods Newbie question... 
I got the Crane Gold Race 1.8 RR kit which came with 7.250" pushrods. I thought the stock length pushrods were 7.400"?
What should I do... apart from calling the store?

Pushrods Those Pushrods Are The Right Lenght In That Kit. 7.250 Is Correct,now If You Have Aftermarket Heads On The Motor Or Have Done Any Milling Work To Your Heads, The Pushrods Must Be Shortened. That Length Is Correct Because Of The Way The Quick Lift Rockers Works, And Now That The Valvetrain Is Adjustable. One Last Note, Follow The Crane Adjust Procedure To The Dot, Because If You Don't It Will Kick On Ses Lights And Hardly Run. I Repeat Don't Adjust Them Like An Old Small Block Chevy Valvetrain! Good Luck, And You Will Be Happy With The Results You Get From Those Rockers.
