maybe your pushrods are too long and the 1.8's made it worse so now your valves are open and it wont start. i think sport side once went form 7.4's to 7.5's and his truck wouldnt start either

yes, it wouldn't hold compression, starts up for sec or two and goes off. i have arp 7.4 pushrods.
how can fix it? do i have to loose the bolt little bit?
