1993 Ford SVT Cobra Project Stolen Goods Springs

Using some White-Out correction tape on the valve stem, we reinstalled the rocker arm on the problem valve and ran it through a few revolutions to provide a witness mark on the valve tip. With the 6.85-inch pushrods, it seems as if the roller rides on the exhaust side of the tip, which isn't optimal. The sweep distance is also greater than when using a shorter pushrod, so we may end up ordering a shorter set.
