Yes, just need to make sure they will work with the increased spring pressure. Going from 600 open to 800. I’ll call Smith Brothers to verify this.

Just remember they don’t think in terms of small block Chryslers and the jacked up lifter bank angles.

At your spring pressure I’d be running no less than a .120 wall single 7/17-3/8 tapered pushrod.

They aren’t cheap but the SBM is harder on pushrods than about any other engine I know of.

Smith Brothers will probably disagree with me but they are wrong.

And it’s not just Smith Brothers either. It’s Trend too.
