The Speedmaster 8.800" Chromoly Heat-Treated One-Piece Pushrod (Model 1-254-036) is a precision engine component engineered for high-performance small-block and mid-block V8 applications. Constructed from chromoly steel with heat-treatment processing, these pushrods deliver the strength and durability required in demanding engine environments, including racing and modified street engines.
With a 3/8" outer diameter and 0.080" wall thickness, these one-piece pushrods offer superior rigidity and reduced deflection compared to thinner alternatives. The DNA design represents Speedmaster's quality manufacturing standard, ensuring consistent wall thickness and straightness for reliable valve train geometry. These pushrods are ideal for builders seeking OEM-quality performance components at competitive pricing, compatible with most small-block V8 engine architectures that accept 3/8" diameter pushrods.
