Pushrod length?

Need pushrod length help for my ls3 camaro. Have btr stage 4 cam, ported my heads, and morel 5290 lifters. I think the morel lifters want .03-.05 preload, any clarification?. When using the 6.8-7.8 pushrod checker took from comp cams, I'm getting 9 and there quarter turns for zero lash. Which is 7.2875. After adding .05 preload i get pushrod length of 7.3375. When I use my 7.4 pushrods, i get about 1.5 turns to bottom out the rocker bolt, which is too much. Do I want 7.35? That would give me just over .06 of preload. Just wondering if that will work smoothly with these lifters.
