If you mill them .035" your combustion chamber sz will be around 59CC, I used hardened stock length push rods but used .030" shims on the rocker arm pedestal bosses given me the correct lifter pre-load. ...The shim kit cam with .030" & .060" so you actualy could shim up to .090"....but if you wanted to just go with .025 shorter push rods you probably will be ok.....BUT it's always best to get a push rod lenght checker...
