Abstract

An improved length adjustable pushrod device for disposition in an internal combustion engine between a rocker arm and a cam shaft comprises a base rod section having a hollow interior extending between an inward seat within the hollow interior and an outward opening at one end of the base rod section and an extension rod section having one end thereof insertable telescopically through the outward opening at the one end of the base rod section and into the hollow interior thereof. The base and extension rod sections define a collective length of the pushrod device when assembled. At least one shim is provided for selective disposition in the hollow interior of the base rod section between the seat thereof and the one end of the extension rod section for selectively varying the collective assembled length of the base and extension rod sections.
