What are stock length pushrods for a 1990 302 (5.0). I need to use them for my new applications, but I don't know the size because I don't have the tool to measure. So help would be great, thank you.

I've searched the forum and I've found people saying that stock length pushrods are 6.272. Is this true?

I was told by Summit that the stock length pushrod for a 1990 302 is 6.250 from Comp and I ordered the pushrods, seeing as which it's real easy to just send them back. But then I found jegs has the 6.272 from Ford Racing. Are these Comp pushrods bad for me, or should I order the other ones? So confused haha.

i actually just ordered some ford racing 6.272 pushrods from summit. They don't list them anywhere that I could find, but if you call em up they can find them. Not a bad price either.

I think the TW's use a longer pushrod than stock...

I use a 6.250" pushrod with my AFR's/cam...

6.272" is stock pushrod.

I would send them back. Your pushrod length is very important.
