Push Rod length with Hyd. Roller

We are putting together a 545ci with a Hyd. Roller cam from Lem. I am using the FRPP SCJ heads. Can you use the standard pushrods for these heads( 2 Different lengths) or are they a special because its a Hyd. Roller?


Thanks Tore

The pushrods needed will be about .600" shorter than what would be used for a flat tappet hydraulic lifter.

Tore,

Expect your pushrod angularity to go to hell with the hydraulic roller set-up.

I don't think I follow you ???? Possible problems with clearance in the cyclinder heads for the holes for the push rods to go thru??

Is the hyd. roller for the 64 galaxie street car Tore?

No Rick its for the Torino, I thought I better put it back together to drive.
