Default I need general help on my build. Part selection etc...

I am currently acquiring parts for my project and I need some help on part selection.

What I Have so far: 1995 sc300 roller, built th400 good for 1000 hp from jw, LM7 bored out to 3.905, ms3 cam, wiseco -3.2cc 3.905 pistons.

I intend to use the stock crank.

Things I am unsure about:

Pushrod style/length, rocker ratio, rod specs for oem crank and basically any other "good to knows" you want to include.

Clearly this is my first ls...

Any help is appreciated!

For pushrod length it's best to check after your long block is assembled. For rockers it's usually best to us stock rockers with a trunion upgrade. You already have pistons so that will dictate what length rods you can use, other than that HP goals and intended RPM range will need to be known. The best thing you can do is spend a lot of time on here reading everything. Some times if you try to built a LS like a SBC you just end up wasting money.
