i am looking for the factory replacement ones. the reason is that my buddy will install a cam on my 95 Formula and he said to get the original ones so that he wouldent have to measure for the pushrod. that if i got the ls7s that he would have to measure and he is doing it for me for free so i dont want to tell him to actually measure them.

Either way man with installing a new camshaft you'd be smart to measure for the correct Pushrod length. Why risk it? Summit, Comp Cam both offer a adjustable measuring tool that's inexpensive. Your friends already going to be tearing into deep enough already. If you don't measure for the correct length your just setting yourself up for failure.

If you ask for replacement lifters, GM provides you with the LS7s. There is still debate on whether or not you can just drop them in and go, but for the ease of measuring PR length, it would be a smart thing to do. Do it right the first time.
