Installed my new rocker arm today on my '54 235 and noticed that there is a gap about 1/2 to 3/4 inch between pushrod and the rocker arm ajusting screw. The cam is new as well as the lifters (solid).The old rods were 10-9/16" so are the new ones..so whats gotten shorter? lifters, cam lobes, or??

Compare your lifters new to old as far as height. You will probably find your difference there. You will need the correct push rods.

Thanks 235FF, The machine shop dumped the old lifters, so..I guess the next rod size up would be 11-1/4.
