Stock can + boost, pushrods? Got a stock ls1 cam still in my car and have the pac 1218 springs. I gotta replace my valve covers so I was thinking about getting some btr 7.4 hardened 5/16 pushrods since the cover will be off. You guys notice any difference by just upgrading the pushrods? Worth the money? I'm thinking with the boost it will be a cheap needed upgrade

I ran the stock LM7 cam with 1218 springs and original pushrods (155k miles) this year with no issues, but I was only running 8-10 psi and 6200 RPM and only put a few hundred miles on it (they were hard miles). I am putting some head studs in this winter and will be getting better pushrods for cheap insurance, that seems to be the consensus.
