Are the heads shaved/milled?

Best thing is to get/borrow a pushrod length checker. However, on average they can be anywhere in the 6.250 to 6.300 range. So getting the tool to measure would be your best bet.

I agree, this is the only way to be sure. The push rod length checker tool can be found on eBay, Jegs, Summit, etc. for about $15.00 to $20.00. Then you just need to find someone who can measure it for you. I go to my local machine shop to have it measured.
