Default Pushrod Suggestions

One of the last things I need for my builds are pushrods. There are tons of brands and lines within brands. I want a quality pushrod that will do the job without having to choose the most expensive one out there if its not needed.

What are you guys using?

454 .04 over
Dart 308 with Ferrea valves, isky 8205 sp springs
Hydraulic roller cam, duration at .05 in the 230s, lift .63x
Rpms will be around 5600, although this is a pleasure boat and will mostly be run 3500 to 4000

I measured the exhaust and need an 8.7 inch, haven't got to the intake yet.

Thanks

I used trend also, .135 wall to be safe. They also had sizes in stock for me, just make sure your size is correct, they are not that cheap but also not that much money....

3/8" .080+" will be fine. $80 each pair Int and Exh. $160 total for engine. Summit, Jeg's, even Amazon.
