push rod guides?
i installed used but milled and tested dart heads.They came with push rod guides installed.i noticed some wear on a couple of the new rods.I was wondering if i need the guides or not. and also if there is a way to adjust them as i would like to use them if i could.i have 1.6 compcam roller tip rockers also installed.

Re: push rod guides?
You need to use harded pushrods when you have guideplates. Are they stock pushrods? If they are they will not work!! Keep the guideplates and buy a set of hardened pushrods.
