Default custom length pushrod??
What sponsor on this forum can get me a set of custom length pushrods? I need 7.035 length 5/16 .080 thick wall. Also how much?

Thanks,

How important is the 7.035 vs. 7.050? Many can get the latter length as Crane, Manley and Comp all will make them.

I have 7.050 but needed to shim up the shaft roller rockers to get correct geometry. Thinking I could get better over valve geometry with the 7.035 pushrod.

Thanks,
Are you sure you're not wanting 7.435? Is this for an LSx application?

Positive, i have the patriot shaft mounted roller rockers. Also have morel lifters which sit a little higher, and a thinner head gasket.

I am running Crane rockers, and will be installing the Morel lifters. I am expecting my pushrods to shorten about 0.090 when I put in the Morels.

PM sent.
