AFR pushrod guides - Setup
Is there anything special about setting up the guide plates from AFR on a set of AFR cylinder heads?
Im going to be setting mine up this weekend now that I finally have my pushrods but the paperwork doesnt state if there is a clearance I need to shoot for between the head casting and the pushrod or if its just simply centering the roller tips without the pushrod touching the head.

The goal is to center the roller tip on the valve stem. Don't worry about clearance with the head, unless of course something is way out of whack and you are right up against it. On every one I've set up, there was plenty of room to center the roller.
