Reply to "Technical question--camshaft--long version"

George PAdmin.

You have a hydraulic camshaft. Solid lifters will work if that's what you got, a valve spring change would be needed to optimize, but since this is a short term motor, don't worry about it, just keep your foot out of the accelerator. If you lashed the rocker arms like a hydraulic cam, that would indeed explain the bent push rods, and the bent push rods explain the noise that returned real fast.

Good luck Mark!

Sounds as though you're getting a handle on this situation. Good stuff.
