I'm looking for some standard push rods for my Gen VI 502. Merc part numbers and lengths are as follows:
Intake (part # 852003) 7.67"
Exhaust (part # 852004) 8.63"
I measured my old push rods and the lengths above are correct. When I was looking for the gm performance parts equivalent I found this part number:
12368081 which is the kit for all 454 and 502 crate engines but the lengths listed are not the same:
Intake 7.575"
Exhaust 8.525"
I know there are different ways of measuring the push rods which may explain the difference but are these the correct push rods or do I have to order directly from merc?
Thanks!

Let me look tomorrow, I had two sets of brand new take outs.
I know I have one cam, with springs and retainers left if you need a cam.
