From: Ben Wampler [mailto:webmaster@erupt.com] >Look for bent pushrods, or pushrods that show signs that they have been Okay, pulled them out, they both look normal, not bent or deformed in any way. Also they were the same length as the rods in the #1 cyl, so I don't think they're the wrong pushrods. One of them had a scuff mark, but it didn't look that bad. I went ahead and swapped them with the pushrods on the #2 with the #1 and did the valves again. On the #2 cylinder towards the rear of the car (can't remember if its in/exh) it still won't let me set it. Do you have swivel foot adjusters? If these were installed without shaving a bit off the rocker arm you may not have enough travel in the adjuster to correctly set you valves. Are the rocker arms bent?
