pushrods

97fordsixer · February 3rd, 2008, 11:05 PM

ok. so my stang has been apart for a few weeks doing intakes and head gaskets and what not and ive been checkin aftermarket parts like pushrods and shit like that. there is no damage or terrible wear on any of my old parts except two pushrods. the end of then looks more metal on metal action than any other one. my question is has anyone on mm use like the longer comp. cam pushrods? I dont remember the exact length but they were a fraction longer than stock. wouldnt the extra length help the old stang flow better? THanks

it can help but can hurt. the wrong cam can have your valve hit a piston and well we wouldnt want that.
and with out rockers or springs
its actually bad. its like having a leaky valve. you'll have horrible vacuum
