What is the purpose of heat-treating these pushrods?

Heat-treating the pushrods makes them compatible with guide plates. This helps maintain proper valve train geometry by keeping the pushrods aligned under the stresses of engine operation, especially in performance applications.

What does the .080" wall thickness signify?

The .080" wall thickness indicates a strong and durable construction for the pushrod. This thicker wall helps the pushrod withstand the forces generated in performance engines, reducing the risk of bending or failure.

Are these pushrods sold individually or in sets?

COMP Cams offers these Magnum pushrods individually, as well as in sets of 8 or 16. This allows you to purchase the exact quantity needed for your specific engine build.

Product Details

Starting with a solid .080" wall chromemoly construction, these Magnum pushrods from COMP Cams are built to handle the demands of street performance and mild race engines. They are heat-treated to be compatible with guide plates, which helps keep them aligned under stress, and feature precision-formed, reinforced ends for added durability. The black-oxide finish not only looks good but also helps prevent corrosion, and each pushrod has its part number and length laser etched on the surface, making identification straightforward when you're working on your engine.

This particular pushrod measures 8.000" long and has a 5/16" diameter, with an additional .200" length over standard. This sizing is crucial for proper valve train geometry, especially after modifications or when using different camshafts. COMP Cams offers these individually or in sets, making it easy to get exactly what you need for your build, whether it's a complete engine rebuild or a targeted performance upgrade. They fit a wide range of vehicles, including many Chevrolet and Buick models from the 1950s through the 1980s.
