are they pedestal mount or stud mount? the only way to know is to build the engine and use a pushrod length checker..you want the rocker arm tip centered on the valve stem

Every build is going to be different depending on the tolerances that everything is machined to. Best bet is to use a pushrod length checker to ensure you get the right fit.

they are the stud mount type, the engine is just going to be a 302 cut 30 over
