get the ford racing timing chain and roller lifters. they are the cheapest and best for your application. you can reuse stock pushrods.

You obviously have the internet. You can use it to find the things you are asking.

Fast, Cheap or Reliable. Pick two and live with it.

Measure your pushrods and order new ones that are the same size if you want to buy new pushrods

I would look into a power package to see what they would use, then buy only what u need. Don't overlook the transmission or rear end either once ur horses get real high or u WILL be sorry!

I think he was trying to say "google it" and figure it out on your own, instead of using this forum for its intended purpose, which is to get tech help about things you may not know about.

if you even tried looking for pushrods, you would see that companies like fms and crane make "stock replacement" hardened pushrods for under $50 so you dont need to know what length they are.
