Post Need help finding Correct Pushrods

I have a 3.8 V6 Camaro. Its a '98. I recently installed some heads which are milled 20 thousandths. Will the stock pushrod work Or will I have to use something else?

I dont even know the size of the stock pushrod. But what pushrod will still give me the correct geometry?

Griffith, Cant say for 100% sure as i dont read up or have that much experience with the V6s, but usually (for LT1s) a stock length pushrod would be fine for anything milled under 30 thousandths. There again the only way to know for sure, and the proper way to check, is with a pushrod length checker.

But nonethe less this is a regular tech question and should be posted in V6 Tech.

Thanks. Moving now-
