Pushrod End

I ordered some new pushrods from Trend. They came very quickly. However, they have the 180 degree ball end. Stock rods have the 210 degree ball end. Do strokers with stock rockers need the 210 degree ball pushrods? I am running the Comp Cams 68-231-4 Cam Shaft.
I called Trend and they do not have a 210 version in the 5/16 rods.
Thanks,
Scott

If I need to get 210 degree ball end rods. Where can I get 9.585" (Or 9.575) rods (5/16) for a decent price?
Thanks,
Scott

Not sure about your question about the ends, but I did want to mention Smith Brothers pushrods (
http://www.pushrods.net).
They make custom pushrods and they work great. I bought 581-9500 (9.5") for my stroker build and they are awesome. Highly Recommend! FYI I am using stock rockers.

The pushrods don't need the 210*. The stock pushrods aren't like that to stop binding, but a cheap way to make pushrods. 2 balls and a piece of pipe, fused together.
I second Smith Brothers rods. Cheap and quick shipping.
