IMO all motors are different...I would get a pushrod checker from COMP...not that expensive...the tool is calibrated...so you know the length each turn...find zero lash...then add another .030-.040 for preload and that's the size pushrod you need...since you're using T&D's and they are adjustable you don't have to be that exact on the length...the T&D's allow a little play on the adjustment...

Check each push rod individually.
They will all be different lengths.
Then pick a length that's in the middle of the shortest and the longest number.
