What is the primary benefit of using chromemoly steel for pushrods?

Chromemoly steel is chosen for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio. This means these pushrods are strong enough to withstand the forces in the valve train without being excessively heavy, which is important for high-RPM performance.

Are these pushrods compatible with engine guide plates?

Yes, these pushrods are heat-treated for maximum strength, which ensures compatibility with engine guide plates. Guide plates help keep the pushrods aligned properly in performance applications.

What does the .080" wall thickness signify?

The .080" wall thickness indicates a robust construction for these pushrods. This thicker wall adds to their overall strength and durability, helping them resist bending or failure under stress, especially in performance or racing engines.

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the top end of your engine, especially for performance applications, the pushrods are a critical component that shouldn't be overlooked. These COMP Cams Hi-Tech pushrods are built to handle the demands of higher RPMs and more aggressive valve train setups. They are designed to be a strong, reliable link between your camshaft and rocker arms.

Constructed from a single piece of seamless .080" wall chromemoly steel, these pushrods offer excellent strength and durability. The ends are precision formed to add thickness and strength where it's needed most, while maintaining consistent wall thickness. They are heat-treated for maximum strength, making them compatible with guide plates, and then OD ground for consistency. The black oxide finish helps prevent corrosion and makes them easy to identify, with the length and part number laser etched right onto the pushrod.

This particular pushrod is 7.800" long with a 3/8" diameter and a .080" wall thickness. It fits a wide range of vehicles, including many Chevrolet, Buick, and GMC models from the 1950s through the 1990s. Make sure to check the full fitment list to confirm compatibility with your specific application.
