broke 2 push rods and a lifter
I broke 2 stock push rods (thought 95 had hardened?) and a comp r lifter (big suprise right). Any way I plan to drain the oil and replace all the rods and lifters this weekend. I was thinking comp hi-tech 7.2 push rods but really have no idea for a lifter to run with the mods in my sig. Any help?

Re: broke 2 push rods and a lifter
will the oem style take high rpm's? I have been taking this motor up to 7000 or higher. I havent had the chance to put in the 3.73's yet but with 2.72's and a high rpm you can stay in second gear through the 1/4

Re: broke 2 push rods and a lifter
do you have part #'s for the oem style and the morels? Am I right for the push rod choice?
Sorry for all the questions, I just want to have the motor back up and running this weekend, and want to do it right.

Morels will require a shorter pushrod, what you need is a morel lifter, and a pushrod length checker and figure out what size is needed, I have morels, with LT4 head gaskets and the heads have been decked once... came out to 7.000" Comp cam Hi Tec pushrods

Re: broke 2 push rods and a lifter
who carries morels, and how much do they cost. I dont want to put a junk motor together but if comp oem's will wrk fine and the morels are 10 times the cost its going to be hard to justify to my budget.

I got my Morel drop in styles from Victory Racing. They were $500. Not in stock either... had to wait a week or so. If you want 7.2 Comp Hi-Tech pushrods... I have some. I need shorter ones due to the Morel lifters. If I can help let me know.
