Default Pushrod Length Question?

I have a Comp 224/224 .581/.581 112LSA cam and a set of 5.7 Liter (241 casting) heads that have been milled 30 thousandths. What length pushrods should I use?

TIA

Floyd

.030 smaller base circle, .030 shorter heads, so I believe you can keep the stock 7.400" pushrods... the head milling cancels out the affect of a smaller base circle

I'm not for sure but you may want to go to a smaller one...I know there have been a few posts on here before about it....and a few could keep their stock length.....I would wait for a few more replies...

Can someone confirm that I should just use stock length pushrods?
