Does anyone know who sells them? I can get an adjustable set from TA Perf, they're only 45 minutes from me. Just wondering if there's an off the shelf set out there.
Don't remember if it was on here or the TurboBuick forum...but back in the day, companies like Melling, in their catalogs had charts where they listed all their pushrods by length and different tip configurations. Then you would find the part number for the length, and cross-reference the application and then you could just go to your local parts store and order whatever length you needed and not have to have them custom made. Maybe an automotive machine shop would still have an old reference book or maybe contact Melling and see if they could give you a lead. I know even a few years ago, some of the Napa stores used to have the rack of paper catalogs, they could look up parts specs like that as well. Most of the stores have gotten rid of the paper catalogs though. I think someone on here actually runs a Napa store, maybe he'll chime in. I think it's Guy Parquette. Maybe private message him and see. Sorry I don't have a specific answer for you but hopefully this will help you.
Thanks FJM568. I need (want) a fairly quick turnaround. I'll ask the local Napa as well. Motor has been out 6 months and it's down to these rods to get it back. Temps are climbing already in AZ so itching to get going before 105-110 sets in for the summer.
I would check Summit Racing they have Comp Cams Magnum pushrods in several sizes. Just make sure you run carb cleaner thru them and blow out with air as there is crap inside the pushrods. I just did all this I had to get longer ones for my solid lifter cam install.
Thanks guys. If I hadn't been waiting so long for this motor I might wait for the Summit ones but it's all the shop is waiting on to complete it so will probably have to grab the adjustable ones. A street motor, no strip runs planned.
Thanks. I was hoping to find an "in stock" set, Summit is out til mid May. I can have my motor back this week so I will spend a bit more instead of waiting.
WOW, Summit is out of stock?? Have bought anything from them in awhile, but they’re usually pretty good at keeping stock. This sucks!
Ran up to TA Performance today and grabbed some adjustable ones. Already installed, will be picking up any day. Six month build saga coming to an end.
