Being a beginner flathead builder, i have a question with fuel pump push rods. It is been told to me that with cast iron intakes it takes a longer push rod for cast intakes and shorter fuel pump push rods for aluminium intakes is this true? And can anyone tell me the lengths for each one. I have one aluminum intake for a 46-48 flathead engine and a cast iron intake for another 46-48 flathead engine. Thank you for any knowledge from any and all flathead experienced Barners is greatly appreciated! Thank you. Tim
