Replacing bent pushrods in a 390
The procedure for measuring clearance and installing new pushrods in a 390 requires having on hand pushrods that are of nominal length, +0.060” length, and -0.060” length.
This may seem like a rhetorical question (to which the answer is obvious) but, not knowing in advance how many of each will be needed, do I really have to buy 3 complete sets of pushrods (48 pushrods)?
Is it possible to purchase a nominal set, test for fit, record the results, and then purchase individual replacements?
Cheers,
