Default custom build sellecting pushrods please help

ok here is what I am building.

LS6 LME 347ci short block 9.0 to 1 C/R

stage 2 317 heads resurfaced. double springs titanium retainers and stainless valves 2.02in 1.6ex. chambers are 65cc.

stock LS1 rockers and lifters.

speed inc. turbo cam 225/225 .581 .581 113lsa

turbo around 10 - 14 psi

so, what pushrods should I go with ?? of coarse they will be hardened chromolly but what thickness and length. thanks in advance for any insight given.

Thickness, most of the aftermarket good pushrods are .080 wall thickness.
Length?? Put the motor together with the head gasket and get an adjustable pushrod to check.
