For my heads and cam swap im going with the 243 heads off a 5.3 truck and lgmotorsports g5x3 camshaft. Anyone run this setup? If so, what length pushrods did you use?

You really need to measure. Everyones setup will vary and the little differences can makes up for a noticeable on on pr length. if you go with the wrong length you can have a noisy valvetrain all the way up to the valves not opening or closing fully, for the 20 bucks it costs for the measuring tool its best to do it
