Default KRE D vs IRON D Ports

Do Kre d ports need longer pushrods vs a Iron d port?

Call them and check, but I think the standard 9.130" works.

Like Lee said check them- too many variables different lifters have different cup height, milled head/decked block affects it even different brands of rockers affect it.

Check the length!Back in 2009 I was about to order my pushrods,I compared length with a fellow member who had the same cam,lifters and so we thought the same heads.We both spent a few hours trying to figure out why our calculated pushrod length was so different.It turned out my heads were setup different with a shorter valve.At the time we both had SD 290 cfm KRE heads.Don't assume anything!
