Default Pushrod length 61cc trick flow 220s

I figured I would chime in and say that my Experiences with Geoff at eps has been great, the cam should be here anyday now. Also thanks to Brian Tooley and a wonderful girlfriend, there are a set of btr trick flow 220s ordered. Both are very professional and great guys to talk to.

With that being said I still have a few parts to order, I need pushrods and was wondering if anyone has a setup they are running with a .051 mls gasket and 61cc milled trick flow 220's. If so what pushrods are you running?
I am going to measure I just wanted to see if anyone has the same combo out there? Also has anyone had any experience with btr slr lifters?

Here's a list of things that all contribute to pushrod length differences:

-cylinder head milling
-block deck height
-cam base circle diameter
-compressed gasket thickness
-valve installed height (valve length and seat depth)
-rocker pedestal height / rocker geometry
-lifter plunger cup height

Pretty safe to say that no two setups will be the same. Tolerances add up, measure for what you need.

As far as lifters go, it depends on how far you want to take it. If you want a nice piece that will take a beating, get morels or johnsons. The slr's are about on par with ls7's, maybe better because across the set you will have a more consistent leak down rate (tighter tolerances / matched internals). As with anything else, you get what you pay for.
