I'm looking for a set of push rods for a new engine. I see there are two manufacturers, Melling and Elgin. Any brand better that the other?
The vendor that I am looking at is on ebay, Classic Engine Supply in Iowa. Any one know anything about this vendor?
Thanks

Another source for Y Block parts is Schumann's Sales and Service in Blue Grass IA. I bought some parts from him (including push rods) and he's a very knowledgeable guy. I have a 2009 catalog with a phone number of 563-381-2416.

Smith Brothers at pushrods.net, also Manton Pushrods at mantonpushrods.com. Both can make custom pushrods to your specs if you are correcting a pushrod to rocker geometry.
