Default How to determine what length rocker stud to buy?

I'm getting ready to order a set of ARP 3/8" studs to go with my CompProMag rockers, and don't know if I should go with the 1.75 or 1.89 length?

Call them and ask what they recommend.

The shorter ones let the poly locks allen sink deep the longer one keep the allen level or slightly above the poly.
Why didn't you go 7/16s instead, if you haven't bought the rockers yet, I would seriously consider it. It's money well spent and money ahead if you are considering mods.

I got a free set of nearly new Comp ProMagnums in 3/8" which I sent back to Comp Cams and had them inspected/and refurbed as needed for $75; so I'm gonna use 'em. I don't plan on revin over 6k and won't probably pull over 375 to 400 rwhp. I gave all of this a lot of consideration and put money into my heads, intake and cam combo. I couldn't turn down a good set of 1.6 rockers even if they were 3/8".

Now if someone wants to buy them for $200 - That could be a different story. They are in a new box and new wrapper - as new. Anyone?
