Torquer 2 and pushrod length question

Trying to get a few opinions on pushrod length since i have seen a few people say to go with longer than stock ones. Going with a torquer 2.

Thanks

7.425 or 7.450's would bring the sewing machine noise level down a bit.

Im running 7.4's but my heads are milled .040. Thats the equivalent of running 7.440 pushrods. Im happy with them.

Do the 7.425 help with horsepower #s or just valvetrain noise??

Just valvetrain noise.
There has been no concrete proof that a change in preload will make or take HP away (unless you're over the limits)
