I have an 88 gas with 11.5 inch push rods,bent one,all I can find is hollow rods with a much smaller ball on the lifter end.Can I use it ok? The others are solid with bigger ball end that goes into lifter.Thanks for any help.Any solid push rods with the bigger ball end,11.5 inches long?
 
will the smaller ball work ok? Have straightened some also,but you get several new smaller bends.LOL I am currently running some straightened ones,but this case is higher RPMs and big cubes with a lot of stress.what uses 11.5 inch long push rods? thanks
 
Comp Cams has "semi-finished" pushrods of varying diameter and length. They come with ends that you can weld on. I don't remember how long they go, but it would be a high quality option if they fit the measurements.
 
So, I have to assume this is for pulling? Is increasing the RPM like step 1 for pulling? My dad's offered me a 77 with a stuck engine that I've thought about pulling for fun, but I don't want to spend much $$ (who does?), so is valve springs and governor changes a good place to start?
