....as long as your 7.4" pushrods are not damaged and they are the correct length you could reuse them.
If you mention some specifics about your set-up maybe one of the guys on here would be willing to take a guess as to what length PR.

I would imagine when you measure it you will be around 7.4" stock length but you will want to double check to get the correct lifter preload, measure the adjustable PR length at zero lash and add the rec. lifter preload (.080 I believe).
