I have 2 pushrods keeping my 235 head from seatting flush. Ideas?

I have a 46 pu with a 235 & I got a fairly clean looking one off craigslist which wouldnt turn over by hand and most likely will go into a 5 wondow 1950 pu I have.

Ive read most the engine threads on here amd youtube videos including the carbkings catn vids

I used marvel mystery oil etc and got her freedup. Moved the pistons by hand to see if that would help. Pulling the head wasnt bad as a one person job but setting it back on has its chachallenges. Suggestions on that besides gey a helper?

Take it easy on my hillbilly self ~ new this and not.much help local car club etc

Respectfully
Dean
