I have a 66 stang that I am building a 302 out of a 87 truck with heads off s 86 truck. I am confused on which size pushrods to use. I've seen different sizes, im just trying to build the engine to have a little fun not to serious. Any help would be highly appreciated
 
Greetings and welcome to :SN:

Pretty sure you need just a standard length pushrod of 6.272 inches if you're using all the stock [stuff].

I would recommend using E7 heads over the E6 heads on that particular block because you're going to lose about half a point of compression with the E6 heads and E7 piston combo.
