What makes this pushrod stronger than standard ones?

This pushrod is made from a single piece of heat-treated chromemoly tubing, which is stronger than typical 1000 Series steels. It also features a thicker .165-inch wall thickness compared to common .080-inch or .125-inch designs.

Can I install this pushrod either way up?

Yes, the 5/16-inch ball ends have a radius that allows for installation in either orientation, providing flexibility during engine assembly.

What kind of engine setups is this pushrod designed for?

This pushrod is designed for high-performance engine setups, particularly those with aggressive camshafts and extreme valvetrain requirements where pushrods can experience significant impact loads.

Product Details

COMP Cams is a well-known name in performance engine parts, especially for their valvetrain components. This 9.250-inch pushrod is built with technology originally developed for NASCAR and NHRA racing engines, where pushrods can experience impact loads up to 7500 lbs. If you're building a high-performance engine with an aggressive camshaft and need a strong, reliable pushrod, this is a solid option.

This pushrod features a straight 7/16-inch diameter for improved stiffness and a higher natural frequency, which is beneficial when you have ample clearance in your intake ports and lifters. It's constructed from a single piece of heat-treated chromemoly tubing, making it significantly stronger than typical 1000 Series steels. The .165-inch wall thickness is consistent throughout, even in the tapered ends, offering more strength than common .080-inch or .125-inch wall designs. The 5/16-inch ball ends have a radius that provides extra clearance for the rocker adjuster at high lift, and they allow the pushrod to be installed in either orientation.
