Pushrod - 7/16 .165 w/ .210 Radius 8.450 Long

The Pushrod - 7/16 .165 w/ .210 Radius 8.450 Long from TREND PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS is a precision valve train component engineered for high-performance small-block and mid-block engine builds. Designed for serious engine builders, tuners, and performance enthusiasts, this pushrod delivers the exact geometry required for optimal valve lift, duration control, and mechanical reliability in competition and street applications. Whether you're assembling a stroker engine, upgrading an existing platform, or demanding maximum valve train stability under sustained RPM, this component ensures consistent valve actuation across the entire powerband.

This pushrod features a 7/16-inch diameter body with a .165-inch wall thickness, providing the strength-to-weight ratio necessary for aggressive cam profiles and high-lift cylinder heads. The .210-inch radius at the end seats precisely in your rocker arm and lifter bores, reducing deflection and wear while maintaining critical geometry under load. At 8.450 inches in length, this component is sized for specific applications where OEM dimensions have been modified for extended valve lift or altered bore spacing. The precision manufacturing from TREND PERFORMANCE ensures dimensional consistency, eliminating pushrod flex and binding that degrades valve timing accuracy and increases wear on critical valve train surfaces.

High-performance engine builders and race teams specify TREND PERFORMANCE pushrods when stock geometry no longer meets the demands of custom cam grinds, ported heads, or modified intake manifold clearances. Verify fitment by confirming your specific engine platform, rocker arm bore size, and lifter bucket dimensions before purchase—this component's precise length and end radius are application-critical. Installation requires careful alignment to prevent binding; inspect your pushrods regularly for bending or stress marks, particularly if running sustained high-RPM or extreme boost applications. Pair this with quality rocker arms, adjustable valve covers, and precision shim-under-bucket or screw-adjuster systems for complete valve train control.
