Pushrods
Hi guys, I have been looking for a set of new pushrods and was looking at the Proform pushrods Part#PRO-66891C. Have any of you guys used these before? What do you guys think of them?

Trick Flow?
I don't know what price range u are considering. But just FYI the Trick Flow p-rods i bought measure a few thou" longer than the number they etched into the p-rod.
I measured mine with a calibrated calipers at work.
But really close is good enough for most of our builds and my wear pattern on the vlv tip was as good as it could ever get even with the longe Trick Flow p-rods. Heck, unless u order custom length p-rods u can only buy them in something like .025" or .050" increments anyways. IMHO most get to wound up trying too hard on their first attempt at this p-rod measurement task.
But once its done and u look back it is really simple to get the results u want. I burned several days trying a bunch of stuff but now i will nail it in 'bout 5 min work.
At least now i get to laugh at all the experts blaberate how hard and expensive they have to make it to get it right.
Good luck and hope this helps,
