Need to find good cheap pushrods/rocker arms

I recently have purchased the Comp cams extreme energy cam and lifter kit which comes with the XE262 camshaft. It was recommended to get pushrods and rocker arms to. can anyone suggest a good but realitively cheap pushrods/rocker arms to buy from summit?

the "summit" brand parts are pretty good. bought a set of "summit" brand guide plates and when i got them out of the package the actually had the "comp cams" logo stamped on them.

I hope you meant "inexpensive" and not "cheap". One area of an engine that should never been compromised on is in the selection of valve train parts. High quality is the name of the game here.

If you do, you may well save a few dollars on the front engine only to pay a few thousand later on.
