Good point Skip

I had to clearance the back of the slot with the Iskey adjustable guideplates to fit a 3/8" pushrod. When doing first assembly on a new valvetrain check all clearances to everything moving over several rotations., ant binding, pushrod clearance, rocker slot, retainer clearance, guideplate clearance / alignment etc etc

It may turn over by hand OK with minor issues but zing it to 7k and see what happens !!!

One of the little angle neck mirrors and a flashlight or even a non coated paper clip can be usefull
