Default hot cam install in lq4

I'm currently having a gm performance hot cam kit installed in my 2002 Chevrolet Silverado 2500hd with a 6.0l engine. Can I use the stock length pushrods or will I have to use a different length? I am going to use .080 chromoly rods and was planning on ordering 7.400 length but I want to make sure this will be ok before I do. Thanks for any help.

7.4" is the stock length. You realy should buy a push rod length checker, measure, then order proper size.
