Pushrod - 3/8 .135 w/ .210 Radius 9.400 Long

The Pushrod - 3/8 .135 w/ .210 Radius 9.400 Long by Trend Performance Products is a precision valve train component designed for serious engine builders and performance enthusiasts. This pushrod serves as the mechanical link between the camshaft and rocker arms, effectively transmitting valve lift commands with minimal deflection and maximum reliability. It is essential for achieving consistent valve timing and peak horsepower delivery in various engine builds.

Manufactured by Trend Performance Products, this pushrod features a .135-inch wall thickness and a .210-inch radius end design that reduces stress concentration at the pushrod cup interface. The fixed 9.400-inch length is designed to maintain proper geometry in stock and modified engine configurations. The radius geometry helps distribute contact pressure across a larger surface area, which extends component life and minimizes the risk of wear or cracking under high-rpm operation.

This pushrod is particularly suitable for small-block and mid-displacement engine platforms that utilize pushrod valve actuation, including applications for Chevrolet, Ford, and Mopar. Its lightweight construction, at just 0.27 pounds, reduces inertial mass while ensuring the necessary structural rigidity for aggressive cam profiles and high-lift applications. Engine builders and performance enthusiasts will find this pushrod to be a critical component in optimizing their engine's performance.
