high lift cam in olds 350 question about Push Rod length

I put a higher lift cam (RV type) into my 1971 olds cutlass. bone stock engine with only about 3000 miles on it) For them to make a "higher lift" to fit into the olds block, the Base cirlce's of the lobes have to be smaller (by .150") so the lifters are now .075" down in the hole, making the distance from the lifter to the rocker are .075 longer. it seems I need push rods that are .075" LONGER to keep the geometry straight and the valves to not open .075" short. am I explaining this right ?? since putting in this cam, the car has no bottom end (it is only 205/214 @ 50, .448/467 lift. I am thinking because of the Stock Shorter pushrods, I am gaining the duration but not the lift. get it ?? cam is installed straight up, not advanced) (also 2.56 gears don't help the matter). any educated opinions on this will be appreciated. Thank you

Interior lights won't go out when the door is closed

I asked a question earlier on how to check the door jamb switches. My switches appear to be good. What else should I check to fix the interior light issue. The light switch is not turned to keep the interior lights on and the doors are shut. Any suggestions???

Year: 1971 Hello My interior lights are staying on even though the doors are closed and the headlight knob is not turned to bring them on. How can I check my door jamb switch pin connectors to ensure this isnt the problem? Thank you Anthony 256656-3584
