if you've changed the heads I can pretty much guarantee that the push rod length will be different. I don't know about holley heads though. Just get an adjustable push rod length-checker and check it.

yep, make sure to use a solid lifter for this as otherwise you'll compress the small spring in the lifter while you measure
