I am part way through installing a T&D 1.8:1 shaft rocker system, replacing Comp HiTech stainless 1.7:1 rockers.

I might have expected the rocker pushrod cup to be in about the same place, but my quick measure says that the pushrods will need to be ~ .250" shorter. With the Comps I was using 9.25" exhaust and 8.280" intake pushrods.

This is the first shaft sytem I have installed, and I am just wondering if others have seen a similar decrease in pushrod length.
