Thanks guys, first please note that in the photo above the pump is sitting flush because the camshaft lobe is down. When up, the fuel pump comes WAY up, probably 1/2". I just didn't take a photo of that when i had a chance.

- The engine is back together and nearly ready to run, so the camshaft is in position.
- The rod is a shade over 10" long.
- The fuel pump has not been rebuilt yet.

Also, I did make sure the rod would fit into the cup in the fuel pump, and the spring is not terribly strong so no problems overcoming it.
