Default Need Help. Pushrod Question

I no a lot of people r gonna say get a pushrod length checker, but i'd like to no what pushrods i can get so i can finish the car all at once instead of waiting for pushrods to ship cause i dont think my 7.4's will work. I have a TR230 cam and i just ordered Patriot 59cc heads with LS7 lifters, does n e one else have this set up who knows what length pushrod to use, i'm still gonna check it i just want somethin thats gonna work so i can get it done. Thanks.

I don't think anyone wants to recommend a length because if you buy them and they are wrong. Pushrods are quick and easy to get, which is why it is best to measure and then order them. I usually measure and order and complete motor assembly while they are being shipped. They typically show up before I am ready for them.
