Message: [QUOTE="Scottbigred, post: 441565, member: 4079"] Hes not saying anything about doing rods without springs. If you have the motor opened up then why not throw in a set of pushrods designed to work with the springs. For the few hundred they cost why not. You say you have no issues, other people have said they didn't have any issues either until they opened the motor up and realized they weren't bent to the point of noticing an issue but they were in fact bent. Why cheap on something so cheap. No ones saying put just push rods in. They are saying if you can spend the 5-600 bucks on springs why cheap out on a set of 2-300 dollar pushrods? If your set up is working great for you then thats fine but to sit here and tell people they are pointless isn't right. I've got pushrods and springs. Did i need either for where i am with my build?? Not necessarily. Do i feel better with them both in there? Yes. It took no extra time to swap pushrods. They were out anyway when the heads were pulled. So why not. I spent all that money for everything else I just couldn't see going cheap on something like that. Now i don't have to wonder if i'll float a valve or bend a rod. I know i won't. Thats just my opinion on it. Are you right that in some cases they might not be 100% needed? Sure. But at this point with your posts it seems that your just getting more and more defensive about your setup because not everyone agrees with you. If your happy with it and feel comfortable with it then thats what matters. [/QUOTE]
