My first head/cam swap

I'm putting 243 heads on my LS1 block 64cc chambers 2.00in valves, yayada and a TR224-112 mild cam in the thing does a .563 lift. Can I use the stock length pushrods (7.4)?

edit: BTW stock rockers 1.7

You'll be ok with 7.4 rods.

Push Rods

You probably could but best way is to check the length to make sure you have the correct preload !

I had the same heads and cam in my LS1 until just last fall. I used 7.4" pushrods, no problem.
