COMP Cams Pushrod 8.750in Straight 7/16

COMP Cams is well-known for developing high-performance valvetrain components, and these 8.750-inch straight pushrods are a prime example of their expertise. Designed for serious engine builds, they incorporate technology originally developed for NASCAR and NHRA race engines where pushrods can experience impact loads up to 7500 lbs. Using these pushrods can help prevent catastrophic failure in demanding applications.

These pushrods are made in the USA from one-piece, heat-treated chromemoly tubing, which is significantly stronger and stiffer than typical 1000 Series steels. The 7/16-inch diameter offers increased stiffness and a higher natural frequency, beneficial when you have ample intake port and lifter clearance. They feature a consistent .165-inch wall thickness, even in the tapered ends, making them much more robust than common .080 or .125-inch wall designs. The 5/16-inch ball ends at each end provide extra clearance for the rocker adjuster at high lift, and they can be installed either way.
