Bigger pushrods?

[BlackBandit]

I'm going to swap in a roller and was wondering what the largest diameter pushrod is that can be run with stock rockers? TIA

If you try to go with bigger pushrods, you may have interference between the pushrod and the cylinder head- the little holes are not big enough to clear bigger pushrods unless the castings are exactly right, and the rocker arms have exactly the right offset. But there are plenty of high performance pushrods available in the stock diameter.

Thank you very much. That is exactly what I wanted to know.
