COMP Cams is known for performance valvetrain components. This dual taper pushrod offers the rigidity of a 7/16" with the clearance of a 3/8".

Key Features

  • This is a single 9.850" long pushrod.
  • The middle of the pushrod is larger in diameter than both ends, offering the clearance of a 3/8" pushrod with the rigidity of a 7/16" pushrod.
  • The dual taper design provides extra clearance at the top and bottom, helping to clear rocker arm adjusters at peak lift and most offset roller lifters.
  • It has a .165" wall thickness, which is stiffer and stronger than previous .125" wall offerings, leading to more accurate valve motion and durability.
  • Constructed from one-piece, heat-treated 4130 chromemoly steel tubing.
  • Made in the U.S.A.

About this part

Product Details

COMP Cams is a well-known name for performance valvetrain parts, and these Dual Taper pushrods are a great example of their focus on accuracy and durability. If you're building an engine and need precise valve control, especially in applications where rocker arm clearance can be tight, these pushrods are worth a look. They're designed to give you the benefits of a larger diameter pushrod for stiffness, while still offering the clearance you might need.

What makes these unique is the dual taper design. The middle section is larger, like a 7/16" pushrod, but the ends taper down, giving you the clearance of a 3/8" pushrod where it matters most, like around the rocker arm adjuster at peak lift. This design helps prevent interference, especially with offset roller lifters, and contributes to more accurate valve motion. They're made from one-piece, heat-treated 4130 chromemoly steel tubing right here in the USA, with a .165" wall thickness that's stiffer and stronger than older .125" wall designs, meaning more consistent valve events and better durability over time.
