Hey guys, I'm gonna put some Edelbrock heads on my 1995 LT1, they have 1.6 RR's,comp lifters..what brand/length pushrods do I need?

 

Comp 7940s, stock length which is 7.2"

 

You need a pushrod length checker, never assume that the pushrod length is gonna be a certain amount. You need to check it with a length checker installed, crank the engine over manually (with a socket), and verify that the roller on the rocker goes from the intake side at close, to the middle at mid-lift, and then to the exhuast side a high lift, and back. Here is a helpful reference:

EDIT: You could check the stock length pushrods you already have in this manner, if they work then that is great, but if not then a length checker would be more advisable then just guessing.

 

thanks for the info.. great link

 

Don't forget, you need to use a solid roller lifter with the same cup depth as the ones you will be using (or take one of your lifters and substitute washers for the spring) to get an accurate reading.
