As Mike Taylor posted...make sure the push rod holes in the head are large enough to eliminate any interference with the push rods. For adjustable guide plates, Jomar's are really nice. They don't move when you tighten the stud.

I assume you're using a spring like the PAC 1409X? If so, a 5/16", .105 wall push rod will work but a 3/8" .080 wall is better. You'll gain you a little lift (due to less deflection) so make sure and check this if the cam is close with smaller push rods.
