Keep the rockers and push rods together as sets. Also be aware the push rods have a 'top' and 'bottom'.

One follow up question: On the recommendation to move over the rockers from the 7.3 to the 6.9, I've made it a habit to keep these items together in sets with the same push rods/rockers/lifters/cam lobes kept together. Do you all think this is worth moving over and taking the risk on mixing the sets with the ones from the 7.3? If so just move the rockers only or which parts of the valve train parts would you suggest moving?
Thanks!
Tom
Tom-
I would be messing with the rockers only if the 6.9 rockers are aluminum.
If they are steel rockers, someone has already done the update, leave them alone.

Makes sense to me. I will pull the valve covers tomorrow and check. Thanks
