I'm gonna be installing my AFR 185s in a couple of weeks and I'm rounding up all the nick nack parts that i'll be needing like pushrods, timing chain set, head bolts, gaskets, etc.

So, what length pushrods do I need for my AFRs(I know they have to be hardened pushrods)? Stock length? What IS the stock length? Oh, I'm using my stock cam....just in case you needed that info to determine the pushrod length.

I would think you could get away with stock, but a pushrod length checker is only $20.

Are they stud mount heads or pedestal...? THat makes a difference. I would get some pushrod length checkers and just use that to see what you need exactly.

They're stud mount heads.
