Can anyone verify what the stock push rod length is for these cars?

From my research the stock length is 271mm and the stock part# 021-109-301-A. I ordered 2 of these to replace the 2 bent ones that I have. I have no history of what push rods were in my motor so I just assumed they were stock but it doesn't appear that way as my 2 new ones are about 1/4" longer than what was in there. Just want to verify before I go buy 6 more stock rods.

Will do once I can get back there to snap a pick of the ones that were in it.

Do you have a solid or hydraulic lifter engine?
You need to measure one of your non bent pushrods.

You may have custom lenght rods which is commom depending on how the engine was built.


It had a hydraulic lifters in it. I am switching over to solid based on the advise of this forum.

You can't just switch out the lifters, you have to change the cam as well.
Hydraulic cam has a different profile than the stock FI cam, and there also was mild performance hydraulic carb cams.
