HELP..Measuring pushrod length Ordered new heads from AFR, and they said I would need to measure for the correct push rod length. Understand the concept, but how easy is it, and where do I get the lifter and pushrod length checker I'm told I need? Comfortable with the whole job of the head swap, just a little unsure of this part of the job.
