I will be going with a custom grind Cam Motion camshaft (makers of futral grinds) What are people using for a pushrod length? I will be obviously replacing my pushrods with a hardened version but what to buy....stock length? longer? shorter?

Figured I definately need to find out after reading another ls1 tech member's horror story.

 

All depends do you have stock heads? If so a stock length hardened pushrods from one of our sponsors are a good choice. If you have milled heads you will have to get a shorter length pushrod.

 

Oh ya, sorry about not specifying. I will be running factory heads just like they came from the factory with upgrade valve springs of course. So stock length of 7.40 is what i need?

 

does the cam have the same base circle as stock?stock lifters or other? if any of those are diff you should use a length checker

 

Well I am not familiar with the base circle used on Cam Motion camshafts, I was hoping someone here would know. I will also be using the stock lifters.

 

call them and ask
