T&D Rockers: Should I replace pushrods?

[Marc Lublin]

You will most probably need to replace the pushrods. The T & D's will only oil correctly within a certain adjustment range. T & D recommends using an adjustable pushrod to check for correct length. When you purchase the pushrods from them, they will throw it in for free if you ask. Once you know the correct length, see if yours are ok. I would install a better set anyway, they are not expensive. Don't think of installing old ones without measuring, if you want to keep your motor.

I always recommend changing the pushrods when doing the T&Ds. We use beefy Comp Cams chromoly pushrods.

When installing the 1.7 T&D rockers, is it necessary to replace the pushrods? Are there benefits/drawbacks?
