You need a pushrod length checker. It's the only way to make the decision accurate. There are too many variables and tolorances amongst all the after-market products and machining. Comp can make custom length pushrods for a reasonable price. Or, if you're not the super accurate type...You already shaved .025" off the length of the factory 7.400" pushrods with the milling of the heads, so all you need is the difference in cam base circle size to determine the new length. If it's the same, you could just choose between the 7.400 and 7.350" readily available sizes as the average Joe would.
