What Pushrods With TFS? Reply #2 – December 05, 2005, 10:29:24 AM I've been using M-6565-L312 hardened pushrods for a 289/302 flat tappet cam from Ford Racing for 6 years... They are approx 1/2" longer than the 5.0 roller p/rods... Quote Selected
What Pushrods With TFS? Reply #3 – December 05, 2005, 02:34:08 PM Appreciate the info. I knew there was some people using twisted wedges around here the could save me buying an adjustable pushrod. Although if they're only around 10 bucks maybe I should anyway, just in the name of science... heheh... Quote Selected

Their recommended T/F P/R is within .1 of a stock 289/302, so I went the cheap route and saved $50... The guide plates and studs came with mine, but I opted for 7/16 studs instead of 3/8".

What Pushrods With TFS? Reply #6 – December 05, 2005, 03:47:02 PM I'm not going to argue about it its not that important to me, Not my car. But stock can he can use stock length rods if he changes cam (which he needs to do) he needs to measure the pushrods for verification. Push rods arent that expensive. Buy the adjustable measure and get the right one without a shadow of a doubt. Quote Selected
