Pushrods from lb9-350 carb

What i was looking for. Thanks.

The search feature is NOT friendly to me. I couldnt even get a search result for LB9. After the site went down i have had a few problems trying to acces archived topics.

Search functionality has been spotty. However, yesterday somebody responded to a thread that was initiated in 2000, last previous response was in early 2001.

But, about the pushrods:

Factory roller lifters are about .1" taller than factory flat tappet lifters. Therefore, factory roller lifter pushrods are about .1" shorter than factory flat tappet lifter pushrods.

Flat tappet pushrods are 7.800" long, factory roller are about 7.300" long.

Dang, shot down by numbers again.

That's what you get shootin' from the hip.

At least the direction was correct ...
