Generally they'll send you some 7.400s, but the base circle is smaller than stock, so, to keep the pre-load close to the same, I always recommend the 7.425 like Pred mentioned.
On my car, I milled the heads .024, used a thinner gasket, and 7.400s. IMO, it achieved the proper pre-load. On my previous car, with just a cam, and the 7.400s, the valve train was noticeably louder.
