Whats goin on? I thought yours was running? I tore mine back down to change to a different head combo. Doya know how long ya need? I have a set that I might not be able to use. Ill sell em to ya. They are MANTON, PM me with the length, and Ill see what I can do. They had 600psi ish of spring on them so they should work for ya, and were on my engine for maybee100-150 miles.

Why rule out smith bros or manton?

I have smith bros, had them in 2 days, good for over #700 lbs in two day 5/16x.116 but its overkill for me but ive seen in some testing at least on the thick 5/16 were good for 300 more rpm then a .080 5/16 due to deflection.

I do have some sets of cut to fit from the indybrocks I buy but dont use, they seem to be .060 if they would work for you they are FREE...just send me an addy.

I also say spend the extra coin on Smith Bros. Nothing but bad luck with Comp here.

What kind of cam are you using? Flat or Roller? What kind of spring pressure?

Bet 5/16 .080 wall pushrod is fine for your application, if your not using a lot of seat pressure and turning a bunch of RPM spend your money on something else.
