Default 0.030 milled heads, 7.35 or 7.4 pushrods???

I have GTP stg. II heads 2.02 1.57 that are milled 0.030 with the F13 cam which push rods should I run. One company told me to run 7.35 and the other company told me to run 7.4 any input would be appreciated

I was told, and now use 7.4 with a .025 rocker pedastel shim. My 7.375 had the cup on the rocker arm coming off the pushrod. You might visually check that first.

7.4 IMO but each will work.
you are .030 shorter because of the mill,however if you are using an aftermarket cam you have .050" smaller base circle.
