    The adjustment nut I think would be the issue with these. And I'm running a bit more lift...

    I'd love the get these rockers, but I hate having to make more stuff work. And I'm not quite sure if I will still need longer pushrods....

      I was looking in summit, and the pushrods were less than 100 bucks...

        I searched for the approximate length I needed and didn't find any under 141 bucks

            Do I need new pushrods for the 1.70:1 roller rockers? Will 5.0L HO valve covers clear everything?

                I have the pushrods that came with the roller rockers off the original engine, and they're exactly the same length as the pushrods from my HO engine. Mine were used from an actual Cobra engine.

                  Cobra heads were milled from the factory to get the lower compression from them. Unless you are using actual Cobra GT-40 heads, you will most likely need longer pushrods.

                    Hmm. Perhaps I'll have to get my hands on a dial indicator and check it then.....
