You need to measure, end of story. Anything else is a guess.
Why do people want to be spoon fed everything? What happened to doing it yourself to make sure its as correct as possible? Stop "ttt"ing, you have the best answer possible and have been told it more than once.

Get in your car, drive to someone with a pushrod checker, allow them to measure, and then ask them.
If you were a diabetic, would you ask people how much insulin to take based off telling them what you ate for dinner?
People are giving you the right answer, you're just not interested in hearing it.

You need to check this with a push rod checker, i'm not repling to this to sound like i'm repeating what everyone else has already told you. I'm telling you this because everyone that has replied is right. Even if you were to guess, the info you gave about your set up is not nearly enough. You need to know the base circle of the cam, head milled?, headgasket, etc. Using a pushrod checker is not hard. I'm sure you could find tons of info on this site about it. There might even be a sticky but i don't know for sure. Ya, with certain set ups that have been repeated many times you could see what one guy ran for pushrods and, if you had the same set up, you probobly would be ok using the same ones. There are always variables in building an engine, that is why everyone here is telling you to check it youself. I'm building an engine right now that requires .050" shorter pushrods than what I would have thought based on the parts I used in my build. The checker doesn't lie.
