RE: push rod length
Your "probably" going to need new push rods. The best way I've found is to buy a push rod length checker and measure it yourself instead of trying to find a credible source with exactly the same combo as yours and hoping they will tell you. Sure you can guess and be a little short or a little long but your valvetrain will be happier with the correct length push rods. Good luck.
