Default Comp Hi-Tech vs. Magnum Pushrods

I need a set of hardened 7.4 pushrods. What are the differences between the Comp HiTech and Magnum pushrods and which do I need for a standadrd 7.4 hardened pushrod replacement when doing a cam swap?

From the research I have done it looks like Comp # 7955-16 is what I need, but I just want verify it in advance. Also where are you guy's picking yours up from, TIA-

The hi-tech's are lighter weight, have more precise radii and are all around a better pushrod. I used the hi-tech's in my 6L, magnums in my 454. Is there really a measurable difference? Probably not that you'll notice. But are the hi-techs better? Yes.
