You need to measure. Usually 6.7" is for TFS headed cars.

if you're running Edelbrocks' with the stock style roller setup, then you more than likely need the stock length pushrods (since Edelbrocks utilize stock valve location and angles), 6.272" length, 5/16" diam; that's what we used on 1EVIL88VERT's 302 with Edelbrock RPM heads; FRPP sells a set out of jegs for $40...you'll need hardened pushrods if you're running guideplates

(the non hardened ones will gall themselves to death on the plates)

thanks for the info dude... a question though... will longer or shorter rods dictate higher or smaler lift such as a different ratio rocker arm?
