Default RE: Intake install finished wont start??

well i just went out pulled the upper intake off, took off 1 of the roller rockers and put in one of my stock pushrods. when i did this i dropped it in made sure it was seated right then tightened the rocker bolt until the pushrod wouldnt spin anymore..... but the pushrod would still spin no matter how tight i got the rocker bolt so im guessing that the stock pushrods are to short?? now im kinda lost.. the new pushrods i got with +.117 seem to go to zero lash, tighten to 20ft lbs and be tight just fine idk

ok guys got it all figured out... Adder- you was right as normal i suppose? pushrods were to long installed the stock ones and everything was fine, also Pro50 you to were right about the compression thing if i would have checked it there would have been none [:@]. Well got the intake all back together started it everything seems fine, checked the timing and took it for a test drive. Definatly pulls harder from 3k rpm+. Anyways thanks again guys
