More or less an opinion poll who do you think is the better of the bunch? If you have another brand that you prefer please post it...if you have or had problems with a specific brand please let me know.

Quite literally I'm asking if anyone had any legitimate problems with pushrod manufacturers on higher RPM applications as far as quality control.

Comp Cams 'hi-tech' series are the way to go. Cost some money but worth it. They are made to any length you need. Don't think for a second that just a stock lenght p-rod will be perfect, lotsa times they aren't.........

tinman, thanks dude. The pushrods are going to be around 7.100 inches according to the length checker...the 351W heads and solid rollers have seen to that.
