Default Pushrods?

I have some EZ adjustable pushrods and lost my instructions. I was wondering. Since two of them are longer than the other two. Do the shorter ones or the longer ones go on the intake or the exhaust.

Are they the HD SE adjustables? The longer is the exhaust and the shorter the intake. The intakes also have a thinner finished band area at the top and the exhaust have a thicker finished band area at the top.

I believe that if you check on the push rods themselves they are marked intake and exhaust. If you need the instruction I can PM them to you later today if they are the HD ones.

Thanks Dawg,
You where right. I just checked on the HQ web site since they're HQ pushrods
and long is exhaust and short is intake. Was asking since my daughter decided
to cut out some snow flakes with my instruction sheets...
