Default Question on pushrod lenght On a stock head application

Okay guys here it goes, I had a head and cam swap done by speed inc last summer they installed patriot ls6 style stage two heads and cam 230/227 .592/571 112+4
The car has performed horrible it only has seen 12.6's vs. the 13.20's it was running. They do not have any idea as to why the car is performing so poorly or dynoing at 365 horse, so I have decided it's time to try a different combo I had the stock heads reworked Local and am trying a slightly smaller cam a comp 222/224 566/568 112. I am using this cam as suggested by the porter for a starting point on the conversion or lets say reconversion. What I really need to know is What length pushrod is used with this size of cam or how would I go about checking it.
Thanks again

The stock 7.4in should work fine. Might want to get some hardend one's. They arent that much $$$. Hope every thing works out for ya.
