epic fail....6 broken pushrods and several other bent ones. I'll pull the heads tomorrow and check out the lifters/cam damage.

Yup bent most of the valves in my brand new heads. found all the broken pushrods, pistons just have light markings so i think i'm safe there. I'm leaving sunday for work for the next three months so I guess this project is on hold till my return. I'm pissed and have considered parting the truck but i guess time will tell.
