T pushrod length

Does anyone know the operating length of pushrods for the XPAG and XPEG
engines? The length I need is that from the contact point at the cam follower
to the contact point at the rocker adjuster, not the overall length.
Thanks...Bill Bollendonk, Littleton, Colorado USA

Bill,
I am just catching up with e-mails after some 10 days 'off-line'.
I agree with Clive's comments but would recommend a little 'trial and error'
with careful measurement to give the correct angle of attack (see comments
by Neil Cairns, Stephen Cooper and Carl Cederstrand in Octagon Bulletins
#362,364,377) for your individual engine.
After skimming the head and fitting a Crane cam to my XPAG a few years ago I
ran for some time with packing pieces under the pedestals before doing this.
After fitting the shorter rods the change in performance was marked.
Best wishes,
Malcolm
