It's always smart to check pushrod length

stock is 7.2 but you do need to check the length. Just buy a pushrod checker like badzee suggested

The base circle and deck height remain the same.
(I'm assuming this is a stock shortblock)

Did the heads get milled? (are they even stock castings?)
Are you using stock thickness head gaskets? (.051 VS .039 Felpros or .029 GM Impala or ,026 Mr Gasket ......)

Even with a head milled .010" and .026" gasket, you should still be at 7.20 (or close enough that 7.15 doesn't help)
A pushrod length checker tool is your best bet to get the right answer.
