I am not understanding :D

You are looking for a new set of stock pushrods?

You can buy them from many sources.  Rock Auto will have them, etc.  Or, you can have them built to your specs by Smith Bros  https://www.pushrods.net/custom-pushrods

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Sorry Steve I get up too early and wasn't clear thinking yet. :icon_eyes: I took a couple engines apart and have some bent push rods. I want to put a new cam in and install new push rods at this time. I was looking at the ones comp recommends for this cam but was curious to see what other options guys were using. Thanks for the reply.

You might consider using some 3/8s for more strength
 Might have to clearance the holes slightly

Comp can recommend pushrods for your engine. Nobody can. The only way to know is to measure your exact engine.


There's too many variables to have a standard part number for all V6s.
