Fuel pump push rod travel distance?

On an 8BA flathead, how far exactly up and down should the fuel pump push rod move during engine cranking?

I'm with jmadson. I think the 8BA shop manual says .185 min .200 max.
I can't remember if I read that on the HAMB or the Ford Barn.

At least I wrote it down so I wouldn't have to remember.
