I think too little valve clearance is the reason that your pushrod bent in the first place... Then the compression shuts the valve, even though the rocker cant go further.I'm sure a tappet adjust all round will probably help a little further but at least thats one problem solved.
It can burn your valves, doing hard work with not enough valve clearance (when hot exhaust gas is leaking past)
