Push rod length
What have some of you ended up with for pushrod length on a 455 build ? I have aluminum heads with roller rockers and we went through the process and came up with a rather long length . The length we came up with for proper geometry is 10.100 long . My friend thought that was a very long length .

The proper length is whatever gives you the shortest sweep across the valve tip. Mine are 9.95 if I remember correctly but that doesn't mean yours won't be different. Different lifters, cam base circle, rockers and cylinder head type can all skew what size is best for you.
