The only thing I can say about checking pushrod length without using check lifters is that the stock lifters can bleed down so You can loose accuracy . Otherwise your video was one of the best I have seen , good presentation . Thank You keep up the updates ! 🇺🇲🇵🇷🦊👍

No way to really know, you’d have to use a pushrod checker and check them like I did. Mine were only slightly different than stock, probably could have even just used stock and been fine id guess. But the tool is only like $30 so cheap insurance to double check :)
Im so frustated, i cant get my lenght for my 351w, i have a crower cam with 284 degree 486 lift on the intake and 288 degree 493 lift on the exahust, i know that the factory messure s 7.56 but i want to know if i can use that lenght or i have to messure, thanks.
I don’t know enough about SBF to say yay or nay, but for peace of mind I’d probably measure just to be safe. I don’t know that my Anderson N41 cam has as much lift as yours and I still needed pushrods, but I think other factors like cylinder heads also go into it and since I had aftermarket pro comp heads I wanted to measure. Plus if you have the engine out it’s really simple and quick to check. In the car is a little tougher but still much easier while it’s all apart
The answer is you ALWAYS have to measure. Get your lobe half way open, your valve at it's half-lift point, and square up the rocker to the valve. Whatever that distance is (plus your lifter preload) is the length you need. There's no other way to do it right.
If stock heads and cam you should be able to use stock length. I think between hydraulic and flat tapped cams though the pushrod lengths are a lot different so make sure it’s the right length for what your using.
You don’t want $40 non hardened push rods with guide plates. Prioritize the Sweep width over location. Example: .050” sweep but closer to the side is better than a perfectly centered .080” sweep. Everything is a compromise, really it’s your valve guides that take the abuse from bad geometry you don’t want a bunch of side loading.
Running great, probably have close to 1000 miles on it. Not much longer left to drive it here in Michigan, over winter I’ll be upgrading the stock fuel lines to 8an and upgrading the axles, rear end, and rear suspension.

Thank you! fingers crossed it doesn’t start rap a tap tappin on startup haha!
What cam do you have on that motor?

I’m going to install Anderson B31 with AFRs 185, what push roads do you think I need? With Novi 1000

@@PeakPerformanceEngineering i got gt40 heads
@molkhaz id be checking then just to be safe. Def worth the time and $30-40 for the tool

I have a 289 with aluminum heads and howards cam and i just measure for push rod and also got 6.35 lets hope we both measured correctly 😂
Yes, hopefully for sure :)
Building a 347
Ended up with 6.35 also. I sluswd a solid checker lifter also.
@The50Baker nice! I’m thinking down the road I’d like to build a 351 based striker for this thing once the stock sbortblock finally fails
@@PeakPerformanceEngineering yea me too.
Whataboutregjalerhead what about the regular heads when you change from the late models from the older models do you have to change pushrods q

Good to know, glad I spent the extra cash for the nice hardened ones.
@@PeakPerformanceEngineering me too! How’s it running

You do it right, and sweep won't be anywhere near .050" wide. More like .013" +/-
The half lift method is what i used to find pushrod length. Anytime anything in the valvetrain is changed, pushrod length needs to be checked.
Yep glad I checked mine as I did need different length pushrods. Have around 1500 miles on the build now and everything running good so far
Dude atleast spray a little oil the cylinders that thing is screeching like a banshee everytime you turn it
GOOD LUCK
SMH
🤔 have about 2k mile on the setup my man :)
