Agree with this. But may not hurt to pull pushrods and set rocker shaft assembly on pedestals to make sure there isn’t anything to prevent them setting down on the heads. After verifying that, put push rods back in place. Check geometry and proceed.
I was getting ready to suggest this----------- I`d be surprised if u didn`t need longer push rods too. Setting the wedge valve train up new, can be time consuming if you`ve never done it before !
