Default pushrod length?

I have a 2000 Camaro z28 with a 224 228 .581.588 112 LSA cam, comp 918 valve springs, and 7.400 hardened chromoly pushrods. I will be getting advanced induction 219cc cylinder heads with 62cc chambers and cometic .040 head gaskets and ls7 lifters and was wondering if I have to change to a smaller size push rod. I've heard people use the 7.400 with that setup but it may cause valve train noise and I'd rather get the right size if needed. If you guys could please let me know what size I need I would greatly appreciate it. Ive heard 7.350, 7.375, and 7.400 but I want to hear it from the guys that know what they're doing. Thanks -Alex

You have to measure for yourself, get a comp cam pushrod checker for $20...

You don't want advice on pushrod length over the Internet, plus why take the chance..
