You are "tech certified" and don't think adjustables are a viable solution?

adjustable what??? pushrods... NO

adjustable rockers... yes.. BUT. adjustable rockers are reffered to as STUD MOUNT.

His heads take pedestal mount rockers, so for him to buy a set of stud mount rockers, instead of getting the right size pushrods, would be foolish. Pushrods are like 1/4 the cost of rockers, and he already has a set of 1.7 RR's

Well like I said before I think the stock pushrod length is correct. If I had an adjustable pushrod I don't think i would find that i need another size, the stock ones look good. It is hard to see the roller moves on the valve but compared to how it was stock it looks pretty much the same.

Where did I mention adjustable (stud mount) rr's? I meant adjustable PUSHRODS. Anyhoo he stated that he thinks he has the correct length. You can calm down now. Read my posts for what they are, ask before you flex the all knowing.
