Default 7.375 or 7.400 Pushrods.

I am reading different information all over the net about what is the stock length pushrods. I am changing the cam in my conversion motor and want to upgrade the pushrods at the same time. What is the stock length on the stock pushrods?

I am installing a G5X2 in the motor and have stock ratio rocker arms and the heads and block are stock. Any recommendations on length for this?

7.400 or 7.425
I would go for the latter (Comp Cam) to keep things quieter

I would rather be quieter if possible. Thanks for the tip. I can see where guys get turned around on the length and go shorter. They see more lift and don't think that the lobe is taller and go shorter on the pushrod. When in actuality the base is what is cut shorter. Correct me if I am wrong on this but I think I am right.
