I am installing 6.0L truck heads that are milled 0.030 in. and I a have a Lunati T1 cam. It is my understanding that shimming the rockers is not a good idea. Now what length pushrods do I need?
7.350?
Surely someone has this same set up.
Also someone mentioned that they found pushrods for $80-90. Anyone know where?
I already did some searching on the subject but was not able to find a definitive answer.

I think you'll get different answers from different people but I would recommend 7.35. You just dont want excessive lifter preload. I too wish we had factory adjustable valvetrains but I'll take what they've given us <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

Summit Racing has Trick Flo pushrods that are 5/16 & 7.35". I think they're $83.
I bought my Comp 7.35" from Thunder Racing. $115. <img src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" border="0">

No, unmilled heads would use stock length 7.40".
