Default question about pushrods

ok. i have a 347 roller motor. crane roller cam,roller lifters and 1:6 roller rockers. i need pushrods. (dont have any to compare or measure.)
i'm a sbc guy who has turned to the dark side and got me a 89 5.0 gt.
i know i need a pushrod checker. but i dont know what size checker to buy and they want $65 for a whole set. but only $15 for 1. i dont wanna buy a whole set when i'm only gonna use it once. so, i'm lookin for info on what size ranger checker should i buy?
i dont know much about fords but i'm tring to learn. sbc i can take apart and put back together in my sleep.lol

thx any info would be greatly appreciated.

Stock length is 6.250" so something in like the 6-6.5 range should suffice. If you haven't decided yet, I'd reccomend Comp Cams Magnum pushrods, about $120 a set and 1 piece heavy walls. Welcome to the dark side....it's high maintenece.[8D]
