Looking to buy an adjustable pushrod so I can measure the correct geometry. Maybe someone has made a custom one from a stock pushrod?

Thanks!

These are available at most Air Cooled VW parts websites as well as on ebay.

The ends of the push rod tool need to be the same as the ends of the push rods being used in the engine.

You would be surprised how many online vendors and ebay do not sell a bus/porsche motor one. I did purchase the EMPI one, same one ACN sells. It is too long and does not have the same ends that the porsche engine uses.

While I could fabricate one with my amateur welding skills, I figured with all the great fabricators on here someone could ship me one for like $15.

Find me a good picture of one, I will make 2 and send you one. I will need one soon for my own engine build.

Just buy one from the type IV store, along with the new chromolly, cut to length pushrods. They have the same ends, which is required.
