Default will this work? should i worry about PTV clearance?

MTI Stealth II 224/220 .581/.581 116+0
Patriot CNC-ed LS6/243 casting milled to 62cc (the ones on their homepage)

Cometic .040 MLS gasket 3.910 bore
figuring 11.33:1 comp & 8.43 DCR

or would i be better of going going more conservative with
Cometic's .045 MLS gasket 3.905 bore
> 11.18:1 comp & 8.32 DCR


also should i run stock length pushrods too (7.400)?

which pushrod?
comp chromemoly
TR chromemoly
TSP chromemoly
are there differences? or spend the $20 else where?

Your PTV should be fine with that setup. As for pushrods you can use a pushrod length checker and find out exactly what size you need then buy the rod thats closest to that length.

ptv fine, do the 11.3 set up, pushrods will be okay, giving you a little more preload. 11.3 fine with pump, depends on dcr and tuner.

What matters is your DCR, run your specs through the DCR calculator to see what the DCR comes out to be with your setup.
