SBC timing chains and push rods?

Robert, the pushrods you get from Comp are Trend.

I prefer a Fast-a-Just over the Hex-a-Just because the Fast-a-Just is stronger, you can adjust it with the valves adjusted, and there is not nearly so much slack in the adjusting mechanism. Also, if you want to adjust the timing later, with the Hex-a-Just, you have to loosen the cam gear retaining bolts. I like to use Loctite on mine.

You will probably need to use an adjustable length checking pushrod in order to get the correct length pushrod for geometry and valve lift.
