The valvetrain is one of the most critical components in any engine build, be it stock or performance. Incorrect pushrod length puts unwanted stress on the valvetrain and leaves power on the table. The valve stem and the pushrod converge if their alignment is extended upward, while the rocker shaft angle lies somewhere between those two.
