If you're staying bone stock then stock will suit you just fine.

For Performance TREND or Smith Brothers.

Survival Motorsports Home Page can hook you up.

If you had a 460 I could fix you right up. I have 2 sets of 5/16" Comp Cams steel "stock" push rods. 1 set is standard length and the other is the 60 thousandths longer ones.

I just went to roller rockers, guide plates and 3/8" push rods. The Comp Cams steel push rods are pretty reasonable. Seems like there about $25 from Summit. You might check it out.
