pushrod ????
ok this might be a stupid ??? but iam not sure i have edelbrock heads that you need to use a bushing kit to use 7/16 due to they are designed to use 1/2 inch.so i ordered the bushing kit but i have not recived it yet and i want to get my pushrod lenght can i just use my stock heads and use my pushrod lengh checker to get my length?? iam using a t/f stage 2 cam not sure if i can do it this way???thanks

RE: pushrod ????
you need to use the new heads, and an old head gasket. But you do NOT need to have the 7/16-1/2" bushings installed... the only reason for them is to keep the head from shifting while the engine is running. Since your not going to be starting it, you wont need the bushings

DO YOU HAVE PEDESTAL MOUNT OR STUD MOUNT ROCKERS? Either way there will be some room for the couple thousandths extra there will be since the head is not torqued. but you will have more with stud mount. if you have stud mount just do like said above get your measurement.
