One says comp cams Seriously, they are the same. IIRC, Paul said that there was only one manufacturer out there making most all of them.

We purchase pushrods in bulk from the same manufacturer that Comp & Crane do, and package them in-house. That's why you can save a few dollars with ours. Ours are engraved with Thunder Racing, but other than that, the pushrods are identical.

Does anyone know if the Manley pushrods are the same too? FWIW, theyre a one piece black pushrod (not metal colored like the stockers).

Or you can just get some 7.400" Trick Flow P-rods from Summit for $85 (Part #:TFS-21407400) . That's what I did....they work beautifully. Why overpay just because they're a sponsor. That's silly.

BTW, I'm running Trick Flows and they looked like they were made well. Looked identical to the Comps i've seen.
