Default Pushrod length...

This thread got me thinking...
https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...2&page=1&pp=20

I called around, and it seems somehow I missed that the Morels are a taller lifter. Go figure...after all that research into my set-up.
BTW...I don't have the tools to measure myself.
Cometic .045" gaskets.
Patriot LS6 heads milled .020"
Stock rockers
TSP "Giant" cam

Pretty obvious I need smaller pushrods than the 7.400.
How much smaller??
7.300?
7.325?

Quick answers please!!! Would like to order them tonight so MAYBE I can have them here for this weekend!!

Maybe this is a better question....

How much taller are the Morels than the stockers?
I suck at search. TexasLT4 and I discussed this already...but I am not 100% on the pushrod length I need.
I know it is either 7.300 or 7.325.

One last little bump for the evening.

No quick answer and only one fix, MEASURE, all else is futile, too many variables.
