Man do I fell like a dumbass, when I drained the oil out of my engine I found NO OIL in the center of the filter. No wonder the pushrod was bent. The oil pressure was always good and I was about to change oil and filter anyway when the thing bent. Looks like very little oil a was getting to the valve train, I guess Im lucky thats all that happened. Probably why it was running a little hot too. This engine had less than 100 miles on it. Next time I am going to change oil and filter after I run the cam in.
