Performance TV and Push rods

I'm pretty sure this is the show I was watching, only half way, and they had a diesel wrench on who says the push rods on the 6.0 were too long (fifty thousandth ??). Like I said, only half watching.

Anyone have any info on this? Has this been well covered and I am just out of the loop?

Ladies say I'm about fifty thousandths to big huhuhuhuhu.... Seriously though, why even bring that up on TV, seems like an odd thing to say.

Unfortunately, you can't get the rearmost pairs out, the HPO branch tube is in the way. To do them all you get to pull the engine and remove the rear cover and branch tube.
