Yeah tha
Bent pushrods are usually what happens when the head of the valve contacts the piston....severe rocker arm mechanical bind can jack the rocker stud out of the head...at this point your next step would be to buy or fabricate an adapter that allows you to pressurize each cylinder thru the spark plug hole to check for valve damage....the cylinder won’t hold air with bent valve heads
t what I did I have the tools to check compression on each valve and no valve leak that why I’m curious of how it bended the pushrods

What do you mean by money shift also ?

That's when you're slamming gears in a manual. You go for, say a WOT 2-3 upshift, and instead nail yourself a WOT 2-1 downshift. It's not cheap. Been there done that, will probably do it again and hate myself before I die.

My trans is auto and it’s was my first time cranking it when that happened what would recommend me to do get another set of pushrods?
