Measuring pushrod length

Not if you want it correct.

Why do you think professional engine builders charge 1500 and up to assemble an engine?

I’ve had mine together in various stages close to a dozen times. I’ve cleaned it several times times.

I now am ready to do a down fill to verify compression ratio, then it’s degrees the cam and measure for pushrod length. Then it comes back apart, gets cleaned to hell and back.

Then it gets assembled, assuming I don’t have to fix or change something.

Pushrod length is not a place to try and cut a corner.
