Cool Re: '54 Y-Block push rods

OK ...

I think I have it ciphered. My CRS is forgetting 7th grade math.

ELGIN PR-71 8.258mm or 8 17/64" OL

FORD EBU 6565-B = 8 19/64" OL

So the OEM is a bit longer.

The ends description are included in the spec and can be found further in the ELGIN CATALOG (See Attached)

You really won't know until you install (one cyl), lash and then check valve-train geometry (IMO).

Maybe call TECH?
