That sucks ... sorry to hear. 
If the valves are bent, then they hit the tops of the pistons.
Your engine may have more damage than you realize.
The connecting rods between the crank shaft and the pistons may be bent or cracked (possibly broken, but unlikely) and the pisonts themselves may even have some damage.
Worst case, the crankshaft could possibly have been bent, but this is not likely.
It may be a good idea to have a trustworthy mechanic check the engine for you before you put a repaired head back on a damaged engine.
