push rod length

[arizona satellite]

I am in process of building my 440 and need to order push rods for it. here is what I am working with.

std deck 440 block
440 source stealth heads(uncut)
comp 305 h cam and lifter
440 source 1.6 roller rockers
I don't have access to a adj push rod tool, so can I use the std solid lifter mopar rods or will i need to buy the adj push rod tool? OR do any of you know of what length I need? I think a 9.2" seems to fit the bill.

thanks Patrick.

Buy the tool. Why mess around? I think it's less than $20.

YEP get the adjustable tool I did the only way to know for sure with the stealth heads they sell different lengths glad I got the 9.1 or I would have had some slop.
