Default pushrod recommendations?

Don't want to break the bank, something a little better than stock. Just received the motor back from the shop and it looks good - SMC 350 bored 40 over. Installing 67 'hump heads', should run good..

I just got a set of hardened rods for $100. They are for a LS motor but I bet the price is the same. If you are using stock type springs on your heads I would just use stock pushrods. If you use something like a beehive or double beehive then I would say get the hardened rods.
