The 3/8 Hi-Tech Pushrod – 9.350 Long from COMP CAMS is a precision-engineered valve train component designed for serious engine builders and high-performance mechanics who demand reliability under extreme conditions. Pushrods are critical links in the valvetrain system, transferring motion from the camshaft to the rocker arms and ultimately controlling valve lift and timing. This chromoly construction ensures that your engine's valvetrain operates with minimal deflection, preventing valve float and maintaining consistent performance across a wide RPM range, making it an essential upgrade for street performance, racing, or rebuilt engines.
Built from chromoly steel with a 0.080-inch thick wall, the 3/8 Hi-Tech Pushrod delivers superior strength-to-weight ratio compared to standard steel alternatives, reducing inertia while increasing rigidity where it matters most. The 9.350-inch length is precision-manufactured to exacting tolerances, ensuring proper geometry and eliminating slop in the valvetrain that can cause timing inconsistencies and power loss. The 3/8-inch diameter fits applications requiring this specific bore size, and the hi-tech construction process minimizes material impurities and stress concentrations, extending service life even under sustained high-RPM operation or aggressive cam profiles that would stress inferior pushrods.
Mechanics restoring small-block or mid-displacement engines, whether Chevy, Ford, or Mopar platforms, will appreciate this component's proven durability in both street and competition builds. Installation is straightforward during engine assembly or top-end work—ensure proper rocker arm geometry and pushrods seat fully in both the lifter cup and rocker arm socket to eliminate noise and premature wear. COMP CAMS' reputation for quality means this 3/8 Hi-Tech Pushrod integrates seamlessly with OEM or aftermarket rocker arms and lifters, making it an ideal choice for anyone prioritizing valvetrain stability and engine longevity.
