Hey MOPAR DUDE whats up with the push rods?? I am running a comp set up fro the whole top half , cam , push rods and RR with no problem. I had to run a .050 under chevy rod but thats what comp called for I just called them and asked what rod I needed and they told me. i took 1 from from my buddies shop and moked it up and it was perfect. I ordered them of the shelf i think it was 7.750.

My engine is running great if I could just get my tranny guys head out of his ***. Yesterday broke shifter fork and the slide pin came out and the slider went past the gear and locked up in 3rd. It had a total of 20 miles on after a $550 rebuild. i might have to beat this dude down. His reputation is shot.

Are your pushrods Ball and cup design? If you tell me you have 7.750 ball n cup pushrods I just may explode.

I am running all Comp Cams parts in my valve train as well. Solid Cam, Magnum Roller Rockers, Timing gear. But when I went to order the pushrods they told me they didn't make 7.750 ball and cup design. So they sent me to Smith brothers and they set me up. The whole deal kinda pissed me off.

Their timming gear set pissed me off too. I installed how I would any timing gear set matched up the the dots like I was supposed to. Got most of the engine together than after I got the valve train in place I noticed that it didn't seem like the valves were opening at the correct time almost like something was 180 out. I thought maybe I had the crank sproket was on wrong at first because it was one of those goofy ones with the 3 keyways slots, but after trying all 3 keyways nothing seem to get better. So I called up the Comp techs and they said both dots on both sprockets had to be installed in the 12 o'clock position. So I put it on how they said and its fine now. I thought maybe I had my head up my *** and didn't read any info that came with but I checked the box and there was nothing in there about how to install it. It kinda pisses me off because if I was just doing a stock rebuild or replacing just a worn gear set someone could easily 180 the engine like me get it all back together and be goint nuts on why it won't fire.
