I know that was not a question. Your question or statement, whatever, "why install new heads and why not straighten push rods?". You yourself stated why that was not really an option. You tried what you suggested then wound up changing the head. Just like I am doing. The difference is, You had a spare. I didn't. And I didnt trust the used ones I saw on ebay. So I bought new ones.
Good day!

The other difference which you missed, or didn't mention is, I straightened the push rod twice and it's still running two years later, cutting an acre a week.[/QUOTE]
Oh. I didnt miss it

That was after you put a different head on it. Mike, seriously? What is your issue with me using new push rods with my new heads? Like I said the push rods are 5 dollars each. Are you saying I should have straightened the old one out and put it in my new head? I am really confused by all of this.
So what, I spent a few bucks, according to you maybe for nothing. But I have piece of mind for 5$ push rods. I am glad your straightened push rods held up in your engine, Good job and congrats..
Can we move on now?
