I purchased the MGC lifters some time ago but have not installed them yet.
What longer pushrods did you use please?   MGC?

I've been using MGC bucket lifters in my Healey race motors for the last 20+
years. Advantages: the geometry is better than the stock pedestal lifters -
the bottom of the push rod is much closer to the cam lobe.  They have drain
back holes that the stock lifters do not. They are lighter. They cost less
than the stock pedestal lifters.
