Pushrod recommendation

What is a good pushrod to run on S/A Crane race gold 1.6, in 5/16 diameter, that do not require guide plates? I didn't think any pushrod "needed" guide plates, but apparently I'm mistaken. Thanks in advance!

S/A rocker arms do not require the use of guide plates so the stock pushrod is ok. The NSA rocker requires guide plates and hardened pushrods.

Xjs, thanks, I was just wanting to upgrade to a hardened pushrod, and what I've looked at states:

Use with guideplates: yes

It just been confusing me, not sure I they mean "guideplate use required", or "okay to use with guideplates". Hope that made sense. lol.
