Re: Does this pushrod look bent to anyone else?

WTF is wrong with you people?

That's a 45* angle pushrod.. they're sh*t in our motors! We have to run at least a 60* pushrod.

Take that to you local pushrod bending shop quick, my friend, and have that bent to the correct angle!

And to you poster who told him he would be fine to run it... you're sick...

I don't get it? Unless it's one of those adjustable pushrods I've heard about. Are you suppose to measure the length now, to determine the proper length needed for your application?

To answer the original question, your pushrod is bent.

Looks good to me man! I don't even know why you bothered replacing it.

Bring it to the cruise in tomorrow night.

Nascar crews use those, the bend helps the car turn left.
