Pushrod - 3/8 .080 8.380 Long

The Pushrod - 3/8 .080 8.380 Long from TREND PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS is a precision valve train component engineered for high-performance marine engines, particularly those found in performance boats and rebuilt outboard powerheads. Built to exacting tolerances, this pushrod transfers precise valve actuation from the camshaft to the rocker arm, making it essential for engines that demand reliability under sustained high-RPM operation. Whether you're rebuilding a performance marine engine or replacing a worn component in your boat's power plant, this chromoly pushrod is designed to withstand the rigors of constant water-based use.

Manufactured from chromoly steel, this pushrod features a 3/8-inch diameter with a thin-wall 0.080-inch wall thickness, optimized to reduce reciprocating mass while maintaining structural integrity under extreme valve spring pressure. The 8.380-inch length is precisely machined to factory specifications, with ball ends that provide consistent seating against the cam follower and rocker arm cup—critical for maintaining proper valve timing and preventing premature wear. The compact 0.18-pound weight ensures minimal inertial loss at high RPMs, allowing your engine to rev freely without sacrificing durability or accuracy in valve train geometry.

Marine engine builders and boat owners restoring vintage or performance outboards will find this pushrod compatible with engines that accept 3/8-inch diameter pushrods with 8.380-inch length specifications. Proper installation requires careful measurement and alignment to ensure correct valve lash and prevent bent or broken pushrods during operation. This component is sold individually, so verify your complete pushrod count and length specifications before ordering to ensure a full engine rebuild or valve train service is completed correctly.
