Default S/E Adjustable PushRods

I'm looking at a set of used p/rods for a few dollars and appear to be in good shape.
Only thing is the guy doesnt have the tubes that came with the kit ( why I dont know ) , question being will they fit inside the stock p/rod tube? Do I need the SE Push rod tubes or..... does that help?
Then again, for a few dollars more I can buy new...
Thanks All,
Rob

Screamin' EagleŽ Premium Tapered Quick-Install Adjustable Pushrods
These premium pushrods are tapered for enhanced clearance at the cylinder head, allowing the use of higher lift cams. The one-piece chrome moly tube adds rigidity and durability, and the threaded adjustment feature provides easy cam installation without removing the cylinder heads or rocker boxes. To simplify adjustment, the tube features six flats, with one flat marked with a large dot for tracking the adjustment. The threaded rod features 4 flats to reduce wrench swing. Each pushrod features the Screamin' EagleŽ logo and is marked for "Intake" or "Exhaust". Kit includes 4 pushrods and required pushrod tubes.

The older version of the SE adjustable push rods were known to rub inside the tubes. IIRC, the tapered SE adjustables replaced the older version and presumably won't rub the inside of the tubes.
