Are those stock puchrods?
I believe your suppose to run hardened pushrods when you run aftermarket cams. They are probbly also the wrong length if they are stock. Your going to have to measure & see what length your going to need. You will need an adjustable pushrod to check for the correct length. Im sure someone w/ alot more knowledge will chime in. Good luck!

Looks like it's time for some new pushrods and some roller rockers. At least it wasn't anything too serious though and you don't have to tear the whole engine apart again.

Small update, took the rest of the pushrods out of the passenger side head, and all are bent. I would assume they are all bent on the drivers side too, but I havent taken off the upper intake yet to get to it. Yay. I can't wait to do all of this in the driveway.My dad doesnt know what hes going to do yet. And I have no suggestions, other than to not spend any more money on the stock heads. Anyone else?

Back from the dead yaaa. OK finally took the other valve cover off and yes I was correct all are bent on the drivers side too durr. But anyway, we were expecting that, not to find that some of the springs had also broke. Soooo, heads are coming off. They will not be going back on. Any suggestions for a set of heads for this car? Any for sale? Voice your opinions on heads like you all havent done that before!![]()

Slap a set of Trick Flow Twisted Wedge heads on there and call it a day. Put a set on my 90 and it picked up over 70 rwhp over the Iron GT-40's that were on it with running less timing and 2# less boost.
AFR165's would be my choice, especially in that heavy car.

p/n B-21Same as B-31 except utilizing 1.7 R.R. N2O or S/C 8-15 lb 302 c.i.d. Best performer for 1.7 R.R., stock pistons and 6200 rpm. Great with TFS or Edelbrock heads. Minimum 30lb injectors and 80mm mass air. Recommend 3.55 or 3.73 gears. Good drivability down to 1900 rpm, mild idle, rpm range 2400-6200, works best with 89-93 EEC, needs 2600-3000 converter. Great N.A. cam for 94-95 Mustang with great drivability. With bolt-down R.R., needs 0.040" longer push rods.
