Sorry about the challenge. I read it the other day on WOG.

Just curious about a few things. Will a Powerstroke from a F150 transplant?

Such a unique vehicle. I am assuming it is LONG term and worth the rehab.

As another wrench suggested on WOG. I would fab some sort of valve depressor, and carefully check each valve to make sure they did not get bent during the mayhem.

I had something similar happen on a BMW 740. Definitely had a valve kiss a piston. I got it timed correctly, put new timing belt and chains on it. It was still running 10 years later when I sold it.

We have recently put additional money in this vehicle and overall its in great shape, it rides nicely and gets really good mileage. So as long as its not catastrophic I believe its definitely worth putting the money into, especially looking at the price tags of new vehicles these days. 
I believe the F150 engine is different. Since it uses a different computer system I am not sure if they used the same sensors etc. I also believe it has 2 turbos where this engine has a single turbo, this could cause some fitment issues. I am hoping at this point that pulling the engine is going to be a last resort. Luckily we were at a very slow speed so I think that may have saved major damage. The compression/leak down test will give me enough information on how I will proceed. If it totally fails that then I know I have to dig deeper and will probably pull the heads at that point and see how bad the valves are bent. I will also at that point pull the pan as well and check the bottom end to verify for any damage there.
