Bent pushrod

By T1M - 06/17/2001 9:04:08 PM; IP 63.98.140.177

I have a 68' Galaxie 500 with 390 2-V. I was torquing down the rocker arm assembly with the pushrods each in place( pretty sure anyway) and suddenly heard a metallic ping or snap. I loosed the rocker arm assembly enough to pull the rod out and it was bent. What did I do wrong?

This thread, so far...
