5/16 Hi-Energy Pushrods - 7.694 Long

The 5/16 Hi-Energy Pushrods - 7.694 Long by COMP CAMS are designed for serious engine builders and performance mechanics who require precision in their valvetrain assembly. These pushrods serve as the crucial mechanical link between the camshaft and rocker arms, translating cam lift into accurate valve actuation across the entire RPM range. Whether you're building a stroker engine or upgrading a classic small-block, selecting the correct pushrod length and specification is essential for reliability and power delivery.

The 5/16-inch diameter of these pushrods strikes an excellent balance between strength and weight reduction compared to heavier alternatives, making them ideal for applications that require responsive high-RPM performance without sacrificing durability. At 7.694 inches in length, this specific dimension is engineered to maintain proper geometry in small-block applications, ensuring correct pushrod angle at both the cam and rocker interface, which minimizes side loading and wear on valve and lifter surfaces.

These pushrods are commonly used in Chevrolet small-block builds, including classic 265–400 cubic-inch engines and modern crate motor conversions. Proper pushrod length directly affects rocker arm geometry, making it critical for optimal engine performance. By choosing COMP CAMS' Hi-Energy pushrods, builders can ensure their engines operate efficiently and reliably.
