During my 430 engine rebuild, the fuel pump pushrod was lost. I was lucky to find a brand new NOS push rod (Part Number CIVE-9400-A).
The shop manual only gives the travel of the pump eccentric cam lift as .25 (I believe). But, no specs on the push rod itself to check a used pushrod for wear (or cut a new one out of steel if you have no other choice).
So, here are the measurements of a brand new pushrod. I would write this down in the shop manual somewhere, maybe in the fuel section. You won't find it anywhere else -- at least I couldn't.
Length = 4.870"
Diameter = .373"
Hope this helps someone someday.
