Default Cam and rod...

I just bought a btr stage3, and 7.4 rods, will the stock length rods be a problem? Or should I have got 7.3 rods? I don't want problems down the road... car is a 05, ls2.. mods are dyno tuned, cai, no cats, lg long tubes, corsa over axle...

You need to measure for proper length.

Yes that's what I've read now, but is there any problems running stock length, or is there anyone running the stage 3 with stock push rods...

It doesn't matter what someone else is doing. Spend the $20 for the tool to measure and find the right length for your car

The answer to "what size pushrod" is always "measure".
