Re: trickflows..which length pushrod (Fevre)
You should assemble the heads and install them and then see what length pushrod you need. All engines are not exactly the same dimensions. I had to go .100 longer with my AFR heads and a .525 lift cam but I measured everything before ordering the rods. I bought a pushrod length checker to make sure it was correct. If it is off teh valve guides will wear very fast or if it is really off valve train failure.
