Default Need help with push rod length

I'm in the process of having my new motor finished and need to figure out what push rod length I need. I was running 7.4 length push rods but I've made a few changes that will require new length push rods. I'm running basically the same motor but now I'm running Morel lifters instead of Comp R's and LS9 head gaskets (I was running either the 3 layer or 5 layer MLS's).

get a push rod length checker tool. I think Speed Inc sells them. That is the safest bet.

Hey man, I got it this morning. Will be back with you shortly!

The gaskets themselves won't require a change. The lifters, cam, etc. will more than likely require a different length in this case.
