just for a heads up, if using hydraulic lifters , you need to either install 1 solid lifter and use pushrod checker to get proper length or..... take hydraulic lifter, measure how far it compresses split the difference (200/ths = 100/ths) that would be the preload amount. then install lifters,pushrods and run rocker down til it just touches the lifter, measure length, thats the length you need + the 100/ths for preload. gm's 50 -100ths preload.
your much safer using a solid lifter measuring with pushrod checker then adding 50-100ths for preload
