454 Push Rod Size

[kbelcher]

Does anyone know the specs on the push rods for a 1971 LS5 454/365 hp? Or where to find this information?

Need size information. I'm trying to make sure the proper push rods are in place.

Thanks!

intakes are 8.285 long and the exhaust are 9.256 long and the diameter depends on what size the push rod guide plates you are using

Thanks for the information. I believe the diameter is 3/8". I'm investigating broken rocker arms. I have had 3 broken rocker arms since August. All are different locations. Want to make sure the pushrods are the correct specs.

Thanks again!
