OK here is a question for Ted. In the 100Th issue of Y block Magazine Ted you mentioned optimizing the push rod length to obtain a 1.64 rocker ratio. Now I realize deck heights, cam base circles etc have an effect but could help us out on the number? A hint on the position of the adjustung nut on the rocker arm? From your earlier articles the push rod needs to be longer, with the adjusting nut backed out. I imagine a "look out for" would be the push rod cup hitting the rocker.
