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

Chromemoly steel is chosen for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio. This means these pushrods can handle the high stresses of engine operation without bending or failing, contributing to the overall durability of your valve train.

Are these pushrods suitable for engines with guide plates?

Yes, these pushrods are heat-treated specifically to ensure compatibility with guide plates. This treatment helps maintain their strength and integrity when used in conjunction with guide plates.

What does the '+.200' in the product name signify?

The '+.200' indicates that these pushrods are 0.200 inches longer than a standard length pushrod for their intended application. This is important for proper valve train geometry, especially after modifications like cylinder head milling or thicker head gaskets.

Product Details

COMP Cams is a well-known name when it comes to performance engine parts, and their Hi-Tech pushrods are built to handle the demands of serious builds. A pushrod might seem like a simple part, but it's a critical link in your valve train, transferring the motion from the lifter to the rocker arm. These particular pushrods are designed to be strong enough to avoid bending or burning up at the ends, even when matched with high-RPM engines and other performance valve train components.

Constructed from a single piece of .080-inch wall, seamless chromemoly tubing, these pushrods offer a solid foundation for durability. The ends are precision formed to add thickness and strength where it's needed most, while maintaining consistent wall thickness. They're also heat-treated to ensure they work well with guide plates and are OD ground for consistency. The black oxide finish not only looks good but also helps with identification, with the length and part number laser etched right onto the pushrod. This attention to detail means they fit right and perform reliably, whether you're building a race engine or a strong street performance motor.

These pushrods fit a wide range of vehicles, from classic Chevrolet Bel Airs and C10 Pickups to Buick Regals and Chevrolet Blazers. They are designed to be a direct replacement for many applications, making them a popular choice for engine rebuilds and performance upgrades.
