These also allow solid pushrods, but I didn't think the OP was getting this far into it.

^^ Certainly look adjustable to me... Only an Evo can utilize absolutely Non Adjustability of push rods.. direct from Lifter to Rocker....

I am aware of that. He specifically asked for a one piece pushrod for an 81 shovel. He made no distinction between solids and hydraulics. And they are in fact a one piece pushrod for a 81 shovel.

Including those calling people names. If I wanted to go down the road, but was avoiding, as to not be a smart ***, we can in fact, although it would be a custom setup, use solid pushrods and hydraulic lifters in a shovel. And the most important part of the post that this smart *** was doing, that the person calling me a smart *** didn't know, was that the person that challenged me in the quote "the one piece pushrod for an 81 shovel " did so as to be a smart *** because he was carrying on an argument from another thread that I refused to participate in. This appeared to be his attempt at a jab I guess.

Jeff, "the smart ***"
