I am building a 351W for Cobra #2 and have a question. I am using GTP cast iron heads with an F cam and 1.7 Crane Roller rockers. My question is does anyone have a similar setup or know what the correct length pushrods are? The stock ones are too short to set up the proper preload. This is a roller cam in a 97 351W roller block out of a 97 F250. A

ny help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

I made a pushrod measuring tool and had mine made to spec. Not very expensive.Got the pushrods from
Smith Brothers http://www.pushrods.net/.

Make sure you heat up the pushrod before you tap it. Just use one of those propane torches. Softens up the metal so you can work it better.
