Bent up stuff

I agree with what you are saying. He disconnected everything because he said my motor didn't need it. I always do my research and I know street motors like vacuum advance. I also know that pcv is needed to relieve crank case pressure. I believe he screwed up on the valve adjustment and the timing fiasco just finished it off. Not sure what else I can say.

Sorry to hear about the damage but it's not fatal. I wouldn't just replace the pushrods though. With two broken springs there's a chance the valve train was binding and causing the springs to over compress.

You'll want to make sure the valves weren't contacting pistons also. - Hope none of them got bent.
