Building a 2054 (94x74). Deck is set at .065"

While setting up the geometry, I am getting results where the shim pack below the rocker stand is greater than .121" and I will need to get longer than standard push-rods.

Does this seem normal, or should I be looking for something that isn't quite right?

You gotta be looking at it wrong.

.120" of shim is out of control.
