I don't know what the LT1 ones are, that is why I posted the question. I figured they would be the same as the Gen 1 350 pushrods. The block is very similar.

I believe the stock length for LT1 pushrods is 7.2" however, if you're planning on some mods like ported/decked heads decking the block etc you should measure the pushrod length, prior to buying pushrods. On my engine I ended up with 7.15s however, a buddy's combo needed 7.0"s.

The CC 7702 pushrod checker is inexpensive and will measure from 6.8 to 7.8.

True, however roller lifter pushrods are shorter that the flat tappet variety. Off hand, I don't recall the lenght, but I purchased a set of Manley pushrods from Scoggin-Dickey. Just tell them the application, they'll know what to send.
