[QUOTE="superpsd, post: 1425005, member: 15821"] It Sounds like you are paying a shop that has not a clue what they are truly doing. They want you to pay top dollar for a rebuild that is likely way out of spec and try and compensate by shorter push rods that will limit valve lift. One last time and not that my advice matters. I would pull the plug. Tell them to had over the rebuilt shortblock and find a good used tested guaranteed engine from a yard etc and get the truck on the road. Then store the short block and finish it as funds allow and or sell it and cut your losses. If they ****ed up valve to piston clearance this far along the main question is what else did they do half assed and do you want to spend the time putting the engine back in the truck to find out you got hosed.
