Measure, Measure, Measure. If you are unsure of the actual length you will need then even Elliot will tell you to measure. As to the brand the Trickflow's are good and so are the Comp Chrome Molly. What ever you get make sure you get a hardened push rod. Good luck and let us know what you find out.

After you verify that stock length pushrods are what your setup needs:

Part #: 21407200

Trick Flow 7.2" length 5/16" chromemoly pr's. Same ones I am using.
