RPM Airgap

i have researched some and see that many people have issues with fitment even with stock applications as far as deck height and head surfaces. some night remember when i bought this 1985 360 i did not know much about it because it came already built.

It came with a new gasket set so i decided to go head and tear it down to put in the new gaskets just because i had them. at that time i questioned the fact that i had two different looking push rods but seemed to be all the same lenght or at least super close.

it had a holly dominator on it so i decided then to put it back on just to be safe but now i have decided to put on the air gap and the recommended gaskets and the holes dont lineup. I started investigate the old intake for signs of being milled and found that they ob longed all the holes on that. so here are some pics of the intake holes and the push rods which still seem to be very close in length. It was hard to hold the push rod/tape measure and get perfect picture at the same time but i think its pretty accurate.


I have not had time to search the stock length of what push rods should be in there...

Thanks for looking Don
