7.430" is ideal for a pushrod with an aftermarket cam.
Since Comp makes 7.4, 7.425, and 7.450, which do you think yould be the best compromise? I'm using the comp 7.4's and my valvetrain is noisy as hell...I keeps sounding like the rockers are loosening up (but they're always tight when I check them)
