I reused my pushrods quite a few times. I had 3 different engines and did a mix and match for the best pushrods. I was running them up to about 6500rpm in stock used form. When I got my trick heads and 284 deg cam I bought new ones which ran up to 7500rpm. I had to replace 2 of them when I got carried away and hit 8000.
Probably similar. You can ask Schneider Racing Cams what they suggest.
Here are some aftermarket push rod makers to review:
Trend Performance
Smith Brothers
Manton
I think Jegs Summit etc. stock some of these. May be more than what you need for a stock motor?
thanks,
Gary H.

> Solid lifters. I have one Melling in there and the rest original. I see two brands out there Melling and Sealed Power that list the push rods. Appears for oil pumps Sealed Power is made by Melling, so quality probably the same for push rods too? Push rod price different though.... $4 ea Sealed Power vs $7 ea Melling.
