Pushrods bend from a missed shift. I ran stock pushrods for a long time and never had a problem. I finally upgraded them when I installed my XE-R cam, due to the extreme ramp rates. Stockers were fine with my TR cam too, and my buddy who is now running it in his truck is using his stock PRs.
jaywoo, what size of cam and what type of springs did your friend's car have? And was that from a missed shift? I think i'm going to use my stock pushrods for a while with my c1 cam and 918's. Maybe i'll even do a before and after dyno if i switch pushrods to see if i was losing power.
Crap, well during my camswap today i pulled the pushrods and found out one of the pushrods is slightly bent. I don't know if the previous owner overreved it or if they're really just that weak. At least i don't have to decide whether or not i want hardened ones now.
