Hello All: I have done alot of searching, thought somebody might have a definitive hard number that would save a bunch of measuring: What should the Fuel Pump pushrod length be for an Edelbrock Slingshot on an 8ba with the 8ba Fuel Pump? Already have crankcase ventilation set up w PCV and...

Thanks for the input guys

Has anyone had any issues running an Optima with a Generator (Charging Issues??)
