counting turns and doing the math was the easy part, I still have to call and order my new pushrods, I had 7.4s in and put a set of 7.35 I had but I need 7.3625? have to call tsp and see what they say. that's with .100 pre load

I think any of the ones failing are being over revved or massive lift cams

i ordered my heads today

did you find that push rod checker held its position easily? taking it out to count the turns, do I need to be careful it doesnt turn while removing?

I have a decent amount of lift now and will be going more in spring
mine did turn pretty easy so I used some electrical tape to hold it in place. still need to order my pushrods but have been to busy collecting parts for my 4l80 Swap
