Maybe the info here will help some: https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...d.php?t=440262

You could get an idea before hand and have two or more different length sets of pr's on hand so that when you measure you already have what you need, then either return or sell the other set(s). If I were to guess off the top of my head, I'd think that you might end up with 7.35's or shorter considering the .035 mill and LS7 lifters.
