Even if you check lengths on things... You are not going to get any consistant readings across all 12 lifters enough to do any more than suggest a better pushrod length.
thirdly... with everything stock, you are probably looking at a possibly slightly too long pushrod, with a comp lifter you are looking at a possibly slightly too short pushrod... so the variance is going to equal out somewhere in the middle of slightly long or slightly short.... which is a good thing. |

Lets hope you are right. There is way too much valvetrain noise though. This one is way louder than any of my previous 3800's. The exhaust leak thing has crossed my mind a few times. I havent found any..yet but I haven't really looked that hard. I have mostly just checked the vbands like we spoke about on the phone.
PR checker arrived today. I'll report my findings tomorrow.
