Cool.I was tempted to head up there and take a look at it but I was afraid I would like it too much and buy it and then have to figure out where to store it and how to find the time to work on it.You saved me a lot of stress already.
Regarding the bent pushrod...if you haven't already,you might want to check the valve that the pushrod was actuating and make sure it's not stuck.That could be what caused the bent rod,especially after starting a motor that hasn't ran for a long time.
