Pushrod - 7/16 .165 w/ .210 Radius 9.400 Long

The Pushrod - 7/16 .165 w/ .210 Radius 9.400 Long by TREND PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS is a precision engine valvetrain component engineered for high-performance and racing applications requiring exacting tolerances and durability. This chromoly pushrod is designed for users who demand reliability in extreme operating conditions—whether in competitive motorsports, high-output engine builds, or specialized tactical vehicle platforms. The extended 9.400-inch length accommodates various engine configurations and mounting geometries where standard pushrods fall short.

Constructed from chromoly steel, this pushrod features a 7/16-inch outer diameter with 0.165-inch wall thickness, delivering optimal strength-to-weight ratio critical for maintaining valve timing accuracy under sustained high RPM and load cycles. The 0.210-inch radius double-taper ball ends provide extra clearance and minimize stress concentration at fastener interfaces, reducing the risk of catastrophic failure during peak combustion events. This precision-ground design ensures minimal deflection and consistent valve lift across all engine speeds, maintaining proper cam follower contact and preventing valve float.

Engine builders, motorsports competitors, and specialist mechanics benefit from this pushrod's performance characteristics when assembling small-block and mid-block engines with elevated compression ratios and aggressive cam profiles. Proper installation requires verification of pushrod length specific to your engine's rocker arm geometry and block configuration to ensure zero lash preload and full valve opening. Weighing just 0.31 lbs per unit, this component integrates seamlessly into lightweight valvetrain assemblies while maintaining the structural integrity demanded by modern performance engines.
