Lengths
99.9% of people upgrade pushrods no matter what cam they get, but the Z06 cam has a smaller base circle to offset the longer Z06 LS6 valves. So a slightly longer pushrod would align valvetrain geometry correctly. Although, a lot of people will say they use the stock 7.400" rods with no problems.
