COMP Cams Pushrod 9.700in Straight 7/16

When you're rebuilding the top end of your engine, especially for high-performance applications, the pushrods are a critical component. These COMP Cams pushrods are designed to handle the stresses of aggressive valve train setups. They measure 9.700 inches long and feature a substantial 7/16 inch diameter, which offers more stiffness and a higher natural frequency compared to smaller diameter pushrods. This is particularly beneficial if your engine has ample intake port and lifter clearance, as it helps prevent flex under heavy load.

What sets these pushrods apart is their construction and design, drawing from technology used in NASCAR and NHRA racing. They are made in the USA from a single piece of heat-treated chromemoly tubing, a material that's notably stronger than common 1000 Series steels. The wall thickness is a consistent .165 inches, even in the tapered ends, providing a solid and durable part that can withstand significant impact loads. The ends feature a 5/16 inch ball design with a radius, which helps provide extra clearance for your rocker arm adjuster at high lift, allowing for easier installation and adjustment.

This set includes all 16 pushrods needed for a full engine. Their robust construction makes them a solid option for builds that push the limits of a standard valve train.
