Default Pushrods and Sewing Machine Noise

I remember reading a post a while back on the Forum where a set of the LS7 pushrods would eliminate the sewing machine noise typical of heads / cam cars. Anyone know about this?

Thanks for your time.

Never read one about the LS7 "push rods" eliminating the sewing machine sound. Do you mean the LS7 lifters? The Cadillac Racing lifters will help some.
Believe me when I say you will need a p-rod checker to get the correct length p-rods needed for your new cam and heads and still it won't sound "stock" after the C/H swap.
