Pushrod length questions
 
I've got a 5.3 and I put in a new cam. I measured the new cam and the old cam and came up with .031" difference in the base circle radius (.062 total).
The stock pushrods are 7.400-7.402 and the Comps are 7.418-7.420 which leaves them short around .013" on average.

Do you figure that's pretty good or should I measure anything more?

FYI, motor has 65k, stock, have used LS6 springs, new double roller, cam is @ .550 lift / 272

Thanks :D
