Default pushrods same length between 5.7 and 6.0?

I bought comp cams HD pushrods for my 5.7 and never used them. now with the 6.0, do I need different ones due to the difference in deck height?

I think you can use the same ones...only major difference between the 5.7 and 6.0 that I can think of are iron vs. aluminum, and a different bore. Deck heights are the same.

All Gen III motors use the same pushrods.

well, I haven't double checked thwir info, but wiseco says the 5.7 has a 9.240 deck and the 6.0 has a 9.230 deck. I know it's only .010, so I doubt there will be a problem, but I wanted to double check.

Most iron blocks we use are for strokers and those have been square decked and probably shaved a little.
Depending on the base circle of your cam, mill of heads, and rockers used, it is advised to use a p-rod measuring tool to really find out what size to use.



It is only $19.95 on TR site.

Funny thing about the Wiseco thing, I have those pistons, the Massive dish ones, sitting in a short block, And they say zero deck is 9.24 with 6.125" rods... so according to them, I should be .. oh.... .01 outta the hole right? well, they sit nicely about .002 in the hole.... So, Yeah, draw your conclusions... btw, undecked, stock stroke.
