Cam install/pushrod question Just put a gm performance hot cam in my car 02 camaro ss...my question is with this cam do I need different length pushrods? Seems like I'm getting a lot of valve train noise

no, your fine with the length rods you have...as long as your still using the stock spec rockers and if i remember right, the GM Per hot cam isnt an extreme enough lift to warrant a change in push rod profile.....
now what your hearing is the fact that the cam has a more agressive LSA and lobe ramp than the factory one does which will give you more valve train noise, this is normal on a cam swap
