I watched a video, read some tech tips, measured twice and cut once.
Still no matter what i can't get the geometry correct, i can make the pushrod checker so short that the rocker bottoms out on the...
Thanks SynRG for the video.
Okay, okay...
That is a guestimate, with a pushrod checker.
I would like to go even shorter, but the rockers wont let me,
Just asking if that length has been used in other combos.

I'm building a 5.9L engine,
It's had the block deck milled, aftermarket heads, cam and rockers. Does 6.750 or 6.800 pushrod length sound reasonable?
That's about .200 shorter than stock,
Thanks....
Thanks Chris and Dave
Yea, no Yellow light, a reaction time starting with .7xx sounds pretty bad to me, the guys at the track said it was pretty good.
I entered the "Truck Shootout" at our local track, Emerald coast Dragway. It was a heads up race with a instant green tree, just stage then Green light, kinda crazy imo.
I went 4 rounds into the...

Is this a new set?
Or a used set?
Is it a set of 8 pistons?

I just put that big wrench on the fan, and give it a good hard hit with a big hammer, knocks it loose every time, but ive never tightened it back on, no need to, it's self tightening.
Dynamic compression is always lower than static.

I had a 97 3.9 Dakota that i intended to put a LA 360 i have into. Realized that wasn't as easy as i thought, my 401k got messed up and i ended up with 10k cash so i was shopping, i thought i wanted...

I think you will need that 3rd sensor in the pipe (mine is still there) if you read the codes it shows up as sensor 1-2 and 2-2. Kinda wierd I know. The one zip tied to the frame on mine shows up as...
I got my Membership package today, very nice t-shirt. Thanks guys.
I'm gonna wear it to the TNT at Emerald Coast Dragway on Sunday.
Here is a link to what we call the dragstrip at Holt FL....
Still running suplimental fuel injector? There are better ways of doing that now, bigger injectors and ditch those extra ones.
That truck could be a real runner with some updates.
And Welcome to...
Mancini for the win. I've never dealt with the other 2 and never saw a need to,
just my opinion and I'm full of them today.

Thanks Guy's it pretty cool being a real member now. My GF asked me at the GTG why I didn't have a DRTC shirt like everyone else had, now I will have one too.
