Default REV-1116s...stock length pushrods?

I am thinking about getting REV-1116 dual springs. I am looking at purchasing them from A&A Corvette along with the retainers and the hardened seats. This will give me the correct installed height, correct?

Is this the same height as stock, or different? Will I need a different size pushrod with them?

Thanks
Mark

I see that they install to 1.840", instead of the stock 1.8, but does this create the need for a different size pushrod? Or will the stock do fine?

As long as you are using stock length valves, you will have no problem installing the dual springs and the stock lenght pushrods. Head milling could have an effect on pushrod length. If your heads have been milled too much, the stock length pushrods will be too long.
Good luck,

No head milling will be done, due to unfortunate financial constraints. This will be a cam-only application. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Thanks for the help.

I have the revs with revs spring seats and retainers as well. I have an installed height of 1.76ish and about 160 pounds instead of 130. I have talked with a few egineers on the LS1 team from GM and there really is no issue with 30 pounds more. So I dont see any need for A&As stuff when revs is just fine. I also run 7.350 pushrods but only cause my heads are milled.
