Pushrod- these are NO good

I hate to be that guy...not really. There is nothing wrong with that. Lol the fact that you are in the guts and don't known that is descriptive. A cam upgrade, a few sizes bigger! Never change a cam without proper supporting components, it's the heart and brain of the engine. Chrome molly pushrods!!! Always, crane,comp,jessel, t&d are all good like most. If one cuts corners or is cheep in this hobby, the inevitable is on its way to your garage. If your valve train did that you would know it before looking for the 7 sixteenth. As I say friends GOOGLE is not experiencing, it's ignorance.
I guess I need to choose my words more carefully, when I had said “couple of sizes bigger”, I still had NO idea what the current size cam I just removed from my motor is that I want to replace. Yes I understand that all the supporting components need to be in harmony but there is some leeway on certain things. The problem I am having is that I have been doing all my own tear down and repair and rebuilding my engines since the 1960’s but now that I’m in my mid 70’s I am occasionally second guessing my self, so I am asking questions.
Don’t get OLD.
