Pushrod length

I am a little iffy on if I measured pushrods correctly… and when I ran the car it seemed to run fine. No misfires or anything. If my pushrods were too long, would it run fine? What about too short?

Yeah I have new seals, but the install tool is very pricey and dealership wants to charge $300 to do it for me (even if i just brought the injectors to them). Was wondering if it was a necessity.

All 6gen camaro's have the AFM lifters and AFM valley cover oil manifold thing, but m6 cars have the AFM tuned out. So all the hardware is there in a manual, it just doesn't activate.
