Ticking!?!?!?
I've got a tick in my motor, and hoping you guys can help me figure out where it's coming from. Here are the motor specs:
I swapped the cam from what is listed above to a stock LS6 cam. My guess is maybe the pushrods are the wrong length now?

Bumping my old thread here... I haven't had much time to mess with this as it's just a project.
I still believe my pushrods are the wrong length. Can anyone tell me the stock pushrod length for an LS6 cam?

I found this in another thread,
I'm using LS6 heads and cam, so if that's correct I should be running 7.40" rods. How much of a difference will my current 7.35" rods make if I leave them in there? Could that be the cause of a tick?
