That is just what I was after. I am going with the TR's. Period.

Thanks guys for your input...but please feel free to beat this dog some more!!!

Ill measure the 6L pushrods that I have laying around and tell you for sure how long they are but I would bet money they are the same length. One more ? I have the comp performance replacement lifters and the comp pushrods between these two things are they the correct length so I have minimal valvetrain noise or do I need to get the longer pushrods.
