this is my winter mod i was just wondering if i would need different pushrods when i do this with ls6 spring? thanks

 

You can get upgraded hardened ones, or use stock. But the if the stock ones are anything like ls1 pushrods upgrading wouldn't hurt...

 

I'm still using stock pushrods on 1.85 RR, haven't had any issues, if you have the money I would upgrade though.

 

alrighty and i just need the springs correct? i can use stock retainers right?

 

Stock retainers and locks are fine

 

Stay below 6200 rpm

 

i will...dont have a tune yet

 

also any pushrods you guys recommend? and they are 7.400" 5/16 diameter correct?

 

Some recommend the oil restrictive ones.

 

yes oil restrictive 5/16 Intense rods are LEGIT.

 

Use the stock pushrods, they will be fine with .520" lift, yellow LS6 springs, and 5800-6200 shifts. The stock LS6/ZO6 with .550" lift use's the same pushrods and will pull to 6800 RPM.

I really don't see any point in using oil restricted pushrods. The LS engines don't have oil drain back issues.
