Cam w/ stock pushrods Was researching and all i found was that hardened pushrods are necessary incase you over-rev. Even though it is piece of mind, can i just keep the stock pushrods in? I was told that if the pushrods wont give out, then something like a rod will. Id rather have a pushrod bend then break a rod. Not too sure..

And BTW, that is crap about the push rod bending before a connecting rod. If anything, a bent push rod would assist with bending a rod, due to the valve staying closed.

Sweet Jesus...if I see one more remark to the effect of stock pushrods being a good idea since they will fail first...I'm gonna smack someone.
Pushrods are NOT a safety net. If you are bending pushrods, you'd better be checking everything cuz you are screwing up.
Buy the correct, hardened pushrods.
