I think the keepers and valve caps were damaged by your previous installation attempt. I recommend you buy the kit on ebay for $16. You should replace all your old valve caps and keepers. Plus you are going to need a new spring set for the one valve.
You need to determine why the valve is stuck in the up position. More than likely, something is bent.
Also, before you put anything back together, you need to determine for sure what was causing the overheating. Otherwise its just a repeat performance.

I am really stumped on what was causing the overheating! Maybe the impeller check will help me understand better
