PUSHRODS

Post by 70MC »

I just bought Trickflow pushrods, 3/8 8.050. While cleaning them i noticed the holes being different sizes .086-.096, and one out of 16 being .100. I also have a new set of 8 Trickflows 3/8 8.100, that measured .081-.090. So out of 24 pushrods they vary .019, that don't sound like much, but when looking at them it looks like a big difference, its also large pecentage wise. Does it matter? I have heard that the pushrod meters oil to the top end, don't know if that is true. The pushrods are going in a sbc.
