    they make a good door stop . they will not tell you the push rod you need for your real rocker arm GEOMETRY with the rocker arm s your using. it will get you close. but you can use some oil base yellow oxide past paint .paint the valve stem and a set of checking push rods and read the contack point at mild lift .hand crank the engine thru move the leigth till its rigth . i use the ferry head checker .were you check at mild lift . i check the manley to the lunati and ferry heads checker .the lunati works good if you use there rockers
