The mid-lift method for measuring geometry is the most accurate, or 'correct' way to determine proper geometry (pushrod length is the variable).

Swapping between rocker brands is also a problem with this. Every brand has a different relationship between the pushrod cup depth, the center of the trunnion and the center of the roller tip AND the roller tip diameter.
