i dont know who's clock you're looking at haha. my time has been consumed here lately. tonight is poker night so tomorrow night i may be able to stab the cam and measure for my new pushrods. im hoping 7.400 will work and i can measure my P2V clearance with the stock pushrods and get to work on that while my new pushrods come in. this is my first time cutting pistons. not a good feeling lol.

slipped the cam in last night. both intake and exhaust valves are contacting the piston just before TDC. this was using a solid lifter with 7.400 pushrod. tonight im checking the degree of the cam and checking the pushrod length before cutting anything. patrick warned me about this, now i gotta learn how to fix it. i was hoping the engine would at least turn over so i could check the pushrod length using the sharpie/white out method.
