Pushrods and Rocket covers

I have installed all of the pushrods on the engine. Aerosport has gotten me all of the -35 length pushrods I need. For some reason, all of the intake pushrods needed to be -35's and the exhaust one were -34's. That put all but one in the mid range of .050 clearance between the valve stem and rocker arm. I had one intake that was .035 clearance which is with in tolerance but that doesn't leave too much room since the min clearance is .028.

I purhcases some silicon rocker cover gaskets from Van's. I threw the cork gaskets away. They are leakers over time and you will back to installing silicon one. Pay atttention to the torque specs on the rocker cover screws with silicon gaskets. These are reusable gaskets. Covers are on and I have also installed the prop governor oil line. The clip they give you to hold the line down unders the cylinders is a little tight and pulls the line over too much. Looking through my pile of adel clamps, I found a longer one and installed it. It now is not in a bind at all. This will cut down on the stress of the line.
The engine is pretty much together now. I still have to install the mags, starter, and alt. I have to get the engine off the stand and mounted onto my horz rotating stand. I can put the front seal in and get the ring gear on. The front seal is always fun if it's not a split ring.
