Someone else said this but I'll repeat, www.oempushrods.com

Decent low-cost pushrods available in 0.050" length increments.

I'd suggest getting pushrods that oil through the ball even if you don't use that feature right now, you may use it later.

Its http://www.oepushrods.com/ I use them on many
occasions... and local to me... 1 day turn around
EDIT
They will make them ANY length if you call them..
not just .050 increments

How do they oil the cup to ball then? Is pushrod oiling needed?




The single shaft version has a hole in the cup..
oil from the shaft goes through the rocker to oil the
roller tip and the cup





When I primed my engine before start up I pulled a valve cover to be sure... run the drill motor, turn the crank and nice little spurts of oil out to the roller. Seems to work quite well. Pushrod oiling not needed with the OE oil setup.

On single shaft.. push rod oiling isnt needed.. as
soon as you go to multi shaft its PR oiling or spray bars

With hollow pushrods you'll essentially have any oil that meters up the pushrod meeting up with oil diverted from the rocker shaft slot spitting to the cup. Other than a little more at the cup and a slightly heavier pushrod ( ~4 grams maybe on a ~7" x 3/8" x .080 wall) as it's now full of oil) I can't see where it would hurt anything. more oil in the cup would probably give you just a bit better oil flow/volume to cool the springs.
