About this part

Product Details

These COMP Cams Dual Taper pushrods are built with a .165-inch wall thickness, which is noticeably stiffer and stronger than older .125-inch wall designs. This improved rigidity translates directly into more accurate valve motion, which is crucial for getting the most out of your engine's performance. They are constructed from a single piece of heat-treated 4130 chromemoly steel tubing right here in the USA, making them a strong option for many builds.

The unique dual taper design means the middle of the pushrod is larger in diameter than the ends. This gives you the benefits of a larger 7/16-inch pushrod for rigidity, while still offering the clearance of a 3/8-inch pushrod, especially around the rocker arm adjuster at peak lift. This taper also helps clear the top of most offset roller lifters, and the 5/16-inch ball ends feature a specific radius to provide that extra bit of clearance where it's needed most.

This set includes sixteen 7.550-inch long pushrods, which is a common length for many V8 applications. If you're rebuilding your top end or looking for more precise valve train control, these well-built pushrods are a solid choice.
