Default what pushrod length???

Ok, I know the best way to check is to do the actual measurement with the length checker and solid lifter, but I'm not removing the heads. I thought the pushrod calculator would be good, but when I called one of the vendors today, an associate there said that the 7.4" pushrods would be fine with the XE-R lobe cam. I came up with a 7.4365" measurement with stock heads and gasket. What to do...any suggestions? Who sells pushrods longer than 7.4"? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

No comments? What length pushrods are you guys with cam only cars running? And have you had a lot of valvetrain noise?
