Detailed Description
Part number MPR-328 is a Melling push rod intended for stock engine assemblies that require the listed dimensions and end style. The 0.312-inch diameter, 9.77-inch length, and 0.313-inch ball ends match the requirements of the covered Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, and Edsel applications.
