Trick Flow® Pro calibrated adjustable pushrod length checkers are the most accurate way to measure pushrod length. Here is how they work: Each checker's designated length range number represents the overall length it can measure from closed through one full inch when fully extended. A laser-etched alignment line identifies each full rotation, while grooves every .050 in. on the inner sleeve keep count of the number of rotations made. For example, when a 7.800-8.800 length checker is turned apart by one rotation, the correct length for the new pushrods required would be 7.850 in. (7.800 + .050 = 7.850). The Trick Flow® checkers are made from high-quality steel alloy with a durable black oxide coating for a lifetime of pushrod length checks. They're available in versions with ball tips or cup tips, and in ranges from 5.800 in. to 12.800 in.

Special parts often require special tools. Jesel's pushrod length checking tools are one of those "getting it right" tools for pushrod length checking. The basic body of the tool consists of three pieces of aluminum tubing. The tubing pieces are 5 in., 3 in. and 1.5 in. long. On two pieces of the tubing, one end is male and the other is female and each end is threaded. Outer ends accept a screw-in pushrod ball end. In total, the pushrod length checking tools are adjustable from 6 in. to 12 in. Important note: Before you order new pushrods, first check the pushrod length on several different cylinders, as well as on both engine's cylinder heads to determine sizes. Never rotate valvetrain using the pushrod checker tool.

Summit Racing Equipment's® patented EZ pushrod length checkers make finding correct pushrod length a snap ... literally! Simply loosen the set screw, tighten the rocker, tighten the set screw, and remove the rocker. The pushrod is then at zero lash. Measure with a dial caliper and add the amount of required lifter plunger preload to get the perfect pushrod length. You'll attain accurate, consistent measurements--and no more counting rocker bolt turns! These stainless steel tools are a must for short travel lifters, and a Master Kit is available for professional engine builders. Order the lengths needed for your applications.
