Hey guys I'm going to be installing the edelbrock 4.0 head on my 98 cherokee along with Comp Cams 68-301-5 cam, does anyone know if I can run the stock length push rods?

If you run a new cam, your going to need new lifters and the edelbrock heads i saw dont come with rocker assemblies. thats a lot of money on top of a 2200 dorllar head. What kind of block is it and what work have you done to it

I have a stock bottom end, and I have brand new lifters, stock rocker assemblies and new factory length push rods. I only paid 1600 for the head through summit racing.

Well thats a lot, but from what i saw from the comp cam website and a generic search for edelbrock heads, since I don't know how many different ones there are, or what you ordered, it should work with no issues
