I'm running PAC 1518 springs which have a .650 lift capacity with the Yella Terra 1.8s on a stock cam 01 Z06 and I'm using 7.4 High tech Comp push rods.

Did you check wipe, and if so did you shim the rockers?

I checked the wipe first with the shims and it was way off. When I removed the shims it was right on and it preloaded right to spec during the install.
