I can't remember. It never started. But from what I remember, it did sound like something was binding when I turned the motor over by hand. I'm pretty sure that was before reassembly as well.

any way that because the lifters were not soaked over night or at all in this case, the valves were over tightened, and bent push rods was the result?

Our valves aren't adjustable. If you overtorque the rocker bolts, the only issue you might have is a broken bolt.

Lifters would clack and then fill up in 3-5 minutes of running. I've used lots of Jy motors that sat around in various applications and they are dry too.

While it's possible that the lifters etc may have done it.. I would think it's highly unlilely.
