Default Info help needed

I have a ls3 with a LPE GT12 cam installed. See photo of spec sheet, rockers 1.7, lifters a upgraded hydrolic roller. I am installing trick flow Genx 255 heads and not sure what length pushrods I should order. I'm guessing 7.700 or 7.750 ?

Your help will be much appreciated.

Thanks !

You're going to need to use a pushrod length checker to get the correct length.

I think you should be asking trick flow, they should know what length to use with their heads, they should tell you what gasket{thickness} you should use, doesn't matter what cam you have.

Get a checker and order pushrods after unless you just get all the sizes that are "close" and return the ones you don't use.
