The Hylift A-2083 should be made in the USA. The Topline Hylift stuff is addvertized to be manufactured here in the US but it's hard to tell if it's true by looking at any given auto part. A person has to check the clearance and make sure it is within the range. If it close to a limit (especially max limit) then a person can change the push rod for a better clearance as long as the push rods aren't too much longer in the next available length.

No use rotor as he didn't believe this the first go-around -

EDIT -

There were three different push-rod lengths released for service/adjust-ability -

1977/ 250CI

STD -9.345" L
.020" U/S
.040" O/S

LIFTER is 1.83" L
