The size of Pushrod's 'pushrod' (Mostly family friendly topic)
Permalink  
 


Has anyone noticed lately that Pushrod's 'pushrod' in his avatar pic has grown? 

Looks bigger than a BBC pushrod to me.  Any guesses what it's from? 

Let's have some fun with this (I'm sure he's o.k. with this knowing his sense of humor...), but let's keep it family friendly and no personal hits at Craig please or it will be moderated (even though I know he can take it AND dish it out)!

Get him some tails and a bow tie and he can conduct the orchestra with that thing!

I don't rmember what the ends of the pushrods look like in my 3406b Cat or I would've said that. It is definately out of a large displacement diesel engine.

 Yep, Mitch wins! 

It's from a Cummins diesel.  Not  sure which exact engine though.  Of course, a trucker would know this, right Mitch?

 Another member gave it to Craig last week at the meeting when he thought that Craig's pushrod needed a little 'pumping up'!

Thank You......what did I win ???

Did we ever get a new batch of club logo polo shirts ? The one I got when I joined was too big and I never did get a correct replacement.

855 is the cubic inch displacement that was the basis for many different arrangement numbers that specified the internal parts for different hp ratings. They went from 290 to 440 hp.
