You need to setup your valvetrain geometry. Get a adjustable length pushrod, checker springs, and do some measuring. Stock lifters? go for about .080 preload and then get the right pushrods.
Measure to zero lash with the checker springs, turn it over check again, then add .080 to what your adj. pushrod length ends up being. Order correct pushrods.
Do it right, it'll cost you all of about $30.
