They are built to match OE dimensions and tolerances so you can restore valve-train geometry after wear, cam swap to a conservative profile, or repair a vehicle without changing pushrod length or diameter. Intended for mild, low-lift cams only, they provide a cost-effective way to maintain reliable rocker and lifter contact on Gen III and IV small-block V8s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich GM engines and model years are these pushrods compatible with?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese 7.400\" BTR pushrods fit a broad range of LS family engines across Gen III and Gen IV small-block V8s.
