Stock length will be fine. Maybe better to upgrade to hardenned heatreated pushrods for durability.

Yeah, stock length pushrods are the right size. agree with the upgrading to hardened ones though, cheap insurance

Get all of the performance your engine can produce with these durable pushrods designed especially for high-lift cams. Trick Flow pushrods are available in both 5/16 in. and 3/8 in. diameters. They feature .080 in. wall thickness and are formed from 4130 chromemoly steel. These one-piece Trick Flow pushrods are heat-treated for use with guideplates. They close their tips, and then the oil holes are drilled and chamfered to .093 in. to prevent stress fractures and cracks

is these the right 1s that i am looking 4?

Heat treated pushrods do nothing for durability if you aren't running guideplates. Chromeoly is a different story though.
