Default pushrods

i had asked about replacement pushrods but does anyone think these ebay advertised 7.4" .080 wall 5/16th pushrods are just as good as tfs? They're only 70$ just curious about their quality. If only they had the markings of .080 7.40" on the pushrod would look better or confirm its actual size. https://www.ebay.com/itm/164641592953

I would steer clear of chinese ebay parts on the inside of the engine. Get some from any of the vendors on here. BTR, Texas Speed, Tick Performance, Cam Motion etc.

This!

Cutting corners with bottom dollar and low quality parts seldom works out very well.

I also have a set of Comp 7.4s and 7.375s that I do not need. These rods are in great shape. Contact me if interested. Will give a great deal.
