Looks like Vengeance has tried to help fix the problem. And the one piece shim would be nicer to work with. Still not their fault on failures or how YT is messing over you and shops that have sold them. Good luck either direction your customer goes.

The Shim Kit will be available on the online store shortly... until then, please call the shop... and yes you will need a longer push rod using the shims, which are not included in the price of the shims.

Shim Kit - $49.99
Pushrods - $109.00

OR

Shim Kit/Pushrods & Rocker Trunion Kit - $289.00

The pushrods are the correct length and would be ready to ship as soon as order is placed? Just asking because I've already ordered this kit from somewhere else, after two months of waiting I've yet to receive a shipment confirmation because everytime I contact them they tell me they are still waiting on pushrods to be completed. If you have them ready to go I'll cancel that order and call you guys.

Push rods should be measured to insure proper length.
OEM style lifter has a 0.50" +/- operating window.... I suppose you could get away with a 7.575" pushrod, but not the proper way of going about things.

I would suggest length be measured before ordering pushrods.

I got my order confirmation on 6/2. Said it would he a few days and I would get my shipping confirmation. It never came, a few days went by and I just figured they forgot to notify me, no big deal I'll just wait for the parts. A couple weeks went by and still no parts. I emailed them and they told me pushrods should be done in a couple days. Ok cool. Another week went by, I emailed again, same reply. Two weeks ago I sent ANOTHER email, this time they didn't even reply. I'm tired of waiting and just want parts so I can put my dang heads on lol. I won't mention the sponsors name but c'mon, what's the hold up?
