    Probably would see a bend until you pull them out and roll them on a flat surface.IMO Timing gear and chain would be the first thing to check out ,and compression test.

    Dave:That reminds me of a problem I had with my engine.Spark was jumping to the wrong cylinder from a bad distributer cap.I spent about 200 dollars on ignition parts until I looked inside the cap and could see where it was jumpin to another cylinder.
