Those are just the same as stock pushrods. Ok if you keep the valve lift below .4" you could run something like a webcam 118 with them but not more. It's about the tip!

Just monitor them every week, and be aware of any changes in power or sound. After a few weeks of periodic lash checks, you should be confident that they won't mushroom.

I always under cut that type of end so you dont get any binding. they are probably good for stock to very mild application. or until they arnt...
