Default HELP, please!

Sup guys. I'm kinda new in the forum. I have a 89 L98 and want to upgrade the valve train. I am looking at some 5/16"x7.200" 1 piece design push rods from Trick Flow. Good price, good product...
For the Rocker studs, i'm kinda stumped. I know 7/16" is a must, but what brand?? i'm loooking at ARP.....but these say not for use with factory locking nut.... All i want is 7/16" studs, for use with facotry rocker arms...and then i'm going to upgrade to 1.6R steel rockers..expensive but needed. So what kind or part number do i use for Studs?? thanks guys.

The Summit Racing P/N for the ARPs is ARP-134-7103, 7/16" screw-in studs at $128.

You will need to upgrade to 7/16" RRs; ProMagnums (P/N CCA-1305-16) are realy nice at around $260 for a set.

You can ge the hardened 5/16" .080" wall pushrods, P/N CCA-7940-16 at $128.

Don't forget the hardened guide plates, P/N CCA-4800-8 at $27.

The prefix "CCA" designates Comp Cams parts which you can order directly from CC.

If you can't afford the RRs just now, don't upgrade the studs now.
