need assistance with push rods

alright, well im currently trying to finish a set of gm 317 heads and ls7 lifters swap on my car so i can get to the rest of a supercharger install. now i currently have hardened 7.4 length pushrods that i was using with stock ls6 heads, lifters, and a 224 228 114 cam. i dont have a pushrod length checker, but im pretty sure i need longer pushrods. would anyone know what size i would need.

thanks,
albert

no, its the stock block, from the research i did, i found out i could use the heads on the block with no problem and all i needed was the 6.0l head gaskets
