3/8 Hi-Tech Pushrod - 8.350 Long

The COMP CAMS 3/8 Hi-Tech Pushrod – 8.350 Long is a precision-engineered valve train component designed for small-block marine and automotive engines where reliable valve actuation and minimal weight are critical. Built from chromoly steel with a 0.080-inch wall thickness, this pushrod delivers the rigidity needed to transfer camshaft motion to rocker arms without deflection, ensuring consistent valve timing across the RPM range.

At 8.350 inches long with a 3/8-inch diameter, this pushrod is engineered for compact engine bays where bore spacing and valve geometry demand precision length and minimal clearance interference. The hi-tech chromoly construction provides superior strength-to-weight ratio compared to traditional steel, reducing reciprocating mass and allowing engines to hold tighter valve clearances while maintaining durability under sustained high-RPM operation. The 0.080-inch wall strikes the balance between lightweight performance and structural integrity required in marine engines running in variable load conditions.

This pushrod is suited for engine builders and restoration specialists working with small-block applications where factory pushrods have reached fatigue limits or where upgraded camshaft profiles demand improved valve train geometry. Whether rebuilding a vintage marine platform or optimizing an existing engine package, the COMP CAMS hi-tech pushrod provides measurable reductions in valve train noise and flex compared to standard equipment, translating to more reliable high-RPM stability and longer component service life.

COMP CAMS is recognized among engine builders for pushrod quality and precision length tolerance. This component is sold individually, so verify your application requires a single replacement or ensure you order the correct quantity for your engine configuration.
