When I had that cam I ran the stock pushrods, its best to have better pushrods, but you can always put those in later down the road. all gaskets are re-usable.

I always recommend hardened pushrods, but if money's tight and you're in a pinch you can get by with the stockers

Tyler, stock pushrod length on this cam or longer? Or what I believe is the 1 OP is using. 7.4" or is it 7.350", I gotta be somewhat close.
