With the Torquer V3 I would recommend running the PRC .650 dual springs. As far as the pushrod you'll want to purchase a chromoly set and a common length is 7.400 assuming your using a stock cylinder head with a stock gasket. Always measure to be sure on proper length though.

Yep gonna want a .650 dual spring. Comp makes some nice ones, Patriots, PRCs, and I'm running the Lunati .660s in mine.

They come with drop in seats to accept the dual springs. Most just install and go with very little issues. I recommend measuring spring height and shimming accordingly.

No machining required for the PRC .650"s.
