Valvetrain questions
I had my 243's milled 0.030" before putting them on my 5.3, should I get shorter pushrods or will the 7.4's work fine? And I need a good place to buy some new head bolts. I refuse to go to the dealership because here in Canada it's highway robbery for parts there. I buy a lot my stuff online if shipping is reasonable. Is there a good site to find some? If all else fails I found some on ebay, the brand is VIC or something.
I also need to know how to clean my rockers up nice. The engine had 200'000km on it when it cracked the head, and they're pretty sludged up. I have a parts washer with varsol in it, but anywhere I can't get my brush is still pretty filthy. Any tips let me know. Thanks.

With just stock lifters and what I assume are stock headgaskets that came with a victor reinz engine rebuild kit. Will I be safe with 7.400 rods? I want to get this stuff on order pretty quick so it's here when I get back at the end of the month.
