Default I need help with ordering cam kit

Texas speed has a special on their cam packages. But I don't know how to order what I need. Can anyone help me out with ordering the push rod length and valve springs .

You're going to have to post some details before anyone can help you.

The answer for what you posted would go something like this:

They sell pushrod length checkers for a reason, and dual springs over singles.

Don't buy the pushrods until you know the proper length. I am pretty sure texas-speed will wait to send you the pushrods after you give them the proper length.

When I used that cam in my stock ls1 tsp assured me 7.4 pushrods were what I needed. I took their word for it and the car ran perfect

From the advice I'm getting I guess I'll just call them as that's what seems to be the best choice. Thanks guys!
