You and Casey got Know-it-all Miller dead to rights. "Pushrod" has
NEVER been the slang form of lifter. Besides which, OHC engines have NO
pushrods; only lifters.



Well I was going to go into that aspect concerning the OHC engines but I
don't recall if any late model Chevy V8's have OHC's. He was talking "big
block".

Which brings up another point, the valve itself would probably work pretty
well for putting a burr on a scraper. Valves are normally quite hard.
