8.1 push rods
 
Can anybody tell me the length and diameter of the stock push rods in a 8.1? Thanks in advance.

I just wanted to give a word of advise on the whole push rod thing. So you don't run into the trouble I have had. I don't know anything about your whole set up, I will tell you, after ordering push rods that were support to be for my motor, they were WRONG!! The tips were riding WAY to the outer edge of the valve, so the best $50 I spent was for COMP CAM MAGNUM push rod checkers ($25 a piece) After I measured and got the right length, I got my roller tips right on the money now. Just my 2 cents!
