On the big block sidewinder heads, what diameter pushrods can you run without having to grind for clearance. I will be running 1.5 rockers. Thanks

We suggest the 5/16s for no grinding. Smith Brothers and others make them in .080 and .120 that will handle up to 700 psi which is more than wnough for any flat tappet and small rollers.
