5/16 Hi-Tech Pushrods - 6.800 Long

The COMP CAMS 5/16 Hi-Tech Pushrods in 6.800 length are precision-engineered components designed for serious engine builders and high-performance enthusiasts who demand reliability in extreme operating conditions. These pushrods serve as the critical mechanical link between your camshaft and rocker arms, directly controlling valve actuation timing and lift. Whether you're building a street performance engine or restoring a classic muscle car, selecting the right pushrod is fundamental to achieving consistent power delivery.

COMP CAMS Hi-Tech pushrods utilize advanced heat-treated alloy steel construction with optimized wall thickness to deliver superior strength-to-weight ratios that reduce inertia and allow higher RPM operation without valve float. The 5/16-inch diameter and 6.800-inch length specification ensure compatibility with various engine architectures while maintaining the precision tolerances required for zero-lash or adjustable rocker arm setups. The hi-tech design incorporates hardened ball ends that resist wear from constant cycling against hardened rocker arm cups, extending service life even under aggressive cam profiles.

These pushrods are ideal for builders upgrading from stock components to aftermarket roller cam profiles, where increased lift and duration demand stronger, more reliable pushrods. They are particularly beneficial for high-performance applications, including forced-induction or nitrous oxide setups, ensuring optimal valve actuation and performance under demanding conditions.
