Long stroke push rods
« on: 28.11. 2014 19:11 »
Does anyone know where you can get the pushrods for a long stroke motor..No one seems to have any that I can find I have been combing ebay for months with no luck even dragan fly does not have any listed..Why do these seem to be so rare??

Thanks for that info Juan. But to clarify is that from the tip of the ball end to the edge of the cup or the bottom of the cup?
If I couldn't find any I'd rummage the local engine re-conditioners bin to find rods with a cup end the right size and marry it to a short stroke rod.
Cheers
