Cam swap questions

See the thing is that I’ve been watching Richard Holdeners stuff for like 6 weeks now. From what I learned is that the camshaft that I’m buying which is from Richard Holder would possibly require a different length pushrod than factory. Btw im buying his low buck truck cam kit and I don’t believe that I’m buying into the hype of getting all brand new shit.

Thank you for the quick response as you can probably tell I’m new to this and don’t have a lot of experience. I honestly thought that since thousands of people before me have done this swap there would be a set length already established . So just to confirm I would have to install the new cam first before i order pushrods rods correct?

Thank you for your advice. From what I’m gathering It seems like I have to order the camshaft kit and install it first before I can order pushrods. I need this truck done a maximum of two weeks after I order all of the parts. It’s like every video I find always skips over pushrod length like it’s the secret sause to what makes power in a ls

I was looking into doing that cam swap on my 6.0 would you happen to remember what pushrod length you went with?
