Will I have to get longer push rods?
My car is the shop getting a TR224 112lsa cam installed. They are going to drop the motor to install the cam & oil pump. I just bougt a set of 243 port and polished heads today. I am going to have them install heads while the engine is out. The TR224 came with new pushrods (bought the package). Will I need longer pushrods with these heads. Thanks for any info.
Also any one that is running this combo what kind of power are you making?

No. Most aftermarket 243 heads has standard solid steel valves, which are the same as normal LS1 valves. The sodium filled LS6 valves were actually a little longer than the LS1 valves, but not so much as to require a shorter push rod. You should be fine with what TR gave you.
