You need to measure period. Be safe not sorry

I dont know what the base circle is on the MS3/4. Anyone know off-hand? I used to know when the magicsticks first hit the streets, that was the most common thread. Measuring is something you should always do unless it is a 224 with un-touched stock heads and 7.4 pushrods. I would like to tell you it is safe with a 62cc but I don't want to be the one that gets flogged when you have .000000002 valve float and eyelash your piston.

With stock lifters and gaskets, you will more than likely need a 7.400" length pushrod. However, I would highly recommend measuring to ensure you get the right length. It's a $20 part that will save you some possible heartache down the road.
