That can only be answered after you have checked geometry, after the build.

Word.

Just find the .080 chromoly and find whichever is the cheapest.

When it comes to valvetrain you DO NOT want to be cheaping out because if you do and something goes wrong and end up bending a pushrod its going to cost you some valves and a bottom end. So in reality is it really worth it to cheap out when a set of Comp or Trickflows that cost around a $100? For reassurances and cost just do it and never look back

I run 7.2" Trick Flow hardened one-piece chromoly in my motor. They were like $80.00...Before that I ran the stockers for 15 years with no problems...Just replaced them for general maintenance when I freshened the top end a few months back.
