what heads? what length valve? which rockers?

a stock ls6 head with ls6 valve will use 7.400 pushrods.

a stock 5.3 head will use 7.425

7.425 assuming the heads aren't milled and you're using stock lifters. not a bad idea to chck it out though

I think 7.425 due to the smaller base circle. Search on LS1tech.

7702-1 Comp Cams Adjustable Pushrod Checker

For sure get one of those for your toolbox!! You can get in the right ballpark as well by using a pushrod of known length and using the method of counting the number of rocker bolt turns from zero lash to 22ftlbs....but again, that is not the most accurate method.
