Im doing Crane Cams 1.7 roller rockers and im wondering if i should install the stock pushrods or go to Summit and get some Hardened ones, Does it matter??? Do i just get stock length or what???

yet another highly debated subject...

the stock ones will work fine...if you choose to reuse them just clean them up really well, and make sure they're straight, and clean on the inside as well.

but, if you get new ones, just go for the FRPP pushrods, they're hardened for use with pushrods, and they're only $40 out of summit or jegs

yes, you can reuse them later on, provided they are the correct length for your future application
