Default pushrod length
ok ive been 2 places trying to find pushrods for my car and both places I went the pushrods they had for my car were longer than the ones i pulled out of mine. Finally i went to a machine shop and had them measure and order me a set. Why would my pushrods be shorter than stock i thought i had a completely stock motor.

Measure the ones that came out of the motor. If they are 7.40", then they are stock. If they are shorter, you have milled heads.
