Im about to purchase some adjustable pushrods. Whats the difference between the aluminium ones and the chromeoly? One better then the other?THanks guys
Good lord, why would anyone, besides a dragracer need moly pushrods? If you're bending or braking pushrods I'd think you have bigger issues in the motor, no?
Aluminum pushrods are lighter. Having a light valvetrain is a good thing, both for better performance and from a wear standpoint. At least, that's the theory. (Unless you make the parts so light they break) The Rivera aluminum taper-lites work well, as do the SE tapered quick install pushrods.
As far as one being noisier than the other, I haven't been able to A-B a set of pushrods, so I really couldn't say.
