i have ls7 lifter an tsp told me they are a taller lifter so yea it could maybe change pushrod size...mine changed but i also have heads and cam
Here's my input. A very trusted sponsor of the site said stock length is fine.I measured mine just to be safe for my cam and came up with 7.310 and went with .090 preload for my valvetrain to be quite.works just fine. And lastly GM doesn't put different pushrods in when they replace them.so if you have a stock cam you'll be fine but you could measure just to be safe
I have LS7 lifters and bought them when I bought my heads and cam from TSP. I was told to measure lifter preload and after I ended up with a 7.40 pushrod length. It's been a while since I did my swap but I believe I ended up with .060 lifter preload.
