I would use the pushrods if they aren't bent sharply, that is with a bend you can't work out by CAREFULLY bending them back to straight a little at a time. Maybe clamp them in a vise between two peices of wood so the bend is at the vise jaws and then, a little at a time bend straighter, moving the pushrod as necessary to get the final result very straight.

If the pushrods are hardened, they can be straightened by peening them on the INSIDE of the bend. Place them on an anvil or block of steel and hit them at an angle with a hammer. You should use a dial indicator if you want them perfect. I've also straightened large dia. hardened shafts by using an acetylene torch. Heat a small dot to orange on the HIGH side and immediately dip it in cold water. Repeat as necessary.
