Best place to buy shorter than stock push rods

[Chris McDade]

I just put a set on T&D roller rockers on my car and it's going to require shorter push rods. Where would be a good place to get some at a good price of course???

Thanks in advance

I got mine through Summit. They have their summit brand really cheap but limited sizes. I got the trick flows, and they have MANY sizes available and pretty cheap. Yes, I am running a "ford" part in my Buick . The pushrods are actually for a 428 SCJ ford....

I'd suggest you call Brian @ Sunset Machine in Lubbock (806) 747-2700. They know Buicks and have local accesss to Lunati pushrods in 0.010" length increments.

Joyof6,
What about putting a .030 shim under the rocker arm shaft?

It would the same size and shape of the pedestal on the head.

Thanks in advance

Trust me on this one, the ones I got from www.cvproducts.com are bad ass! Any size you want, one piece chromemoly, .080" wall, coated, printed with length for reference and ~$75.00 a set. Soon as I get my motor together I have to order another set from them. They supply NASCAR and are real nice to deal with. I recently spoke with them at NHRA booth they had set up and again killer to talk with.

Instead of putting shorter push rods in. How about putting a .030 shim under the rocker arm shaft. I got some from a well known Buick speed shop here in town and they said it would work with no problems.


Thanks in advance

I don't see why not. I shim stuff here at work all the time. Go for it, just check your fit.
