do they exist to ROUND TIP pushrods ? I just have seen screws for CUP KIND pushrods, but dunno if they exist for regular round tip, like the regular hidraulic flat tapped pushrods

If they do I have never used them. Besides, If you are trying to re-use your old pushrods the length would probably be wrong anyway.

checked some on ebay and yes they do exist...



and if I plan on use the rockers is JUST RIGHT BECAUSE THAT REASON LOL... keeping the stock pushrods... isn't that one of the reasons why they exist when replacing the stock rockers ?

Whoa - who makes them? They look kinda jack-leg to me. I would still be weary about the push-rod length Nacho.

thats an example... I have noticed there are betters around.

BUT there are some aluminium around, cheaper than Comp and similars, but with apparently "wrong" screws

anyway is in a very future view... Local credit cards are being blocked right now. Goverment is out of US$ and banks are not confirming on line boughts ( just some ), the worst part is that lot of ppl is getting deals and they are not being able to pay, because banks haven't tell anything yet

:yesnod:  I opted to sell my cup and ball pushrods and chinese roller rockers after reading a horror story of one breaking and dropping a valve into the cylinder. Im running the stock rods and rockers now  :2thumbs:

The Comp Pro Magnum rocker arms use a ball/ball type pushrod but are expensive. I prefer the ball/cup pushrod, personally.  :Twocents:

THEY ARE FOR USE...NOT "CHECKERS"...I've heard they are a pain in the butt to adjust, but they are a good company, think they are 15.00 each.  :scratchchin:
