double check my pushrod length
Finishing up my first real build with my budget 461 stroker and wanted to check pushrod length. I have a HFT cam with stamped rockers. Using the Trick Flow pushrod length checker I tightened the polylock nut nearly all the way down and then adjusted the pushrod until I got the pattern in the attached picture with complete rotation of the cam. I came up with 9.250" with zero lash. Do I still need to add the 0.050" lash and order a 9.300" length pushrod? Having brain fade at this point....
