Lo3s are roller cam right? So the pushrods should be the same. If you are putting the lt1 roller in a non roller engine you have to get the shorter pushrods because the roller lifters are taller than the flat hyd ones.

Yes its a hyd. roller motor lo3 but the lo3 cam is smaller then the lt1 cam so I was wondering if it would use the same size pushrods?

No, The adjustment on the nuts for your rocker arms makes up for the .050 or so increase in lift of the LT1 cam over the l03. Jon
----------
To Clarify - You can use the same pushrods because the lift increase with the LT1 cam is not enough to require custom length pushrods. Jon
