!st thing is check that the push rods are not hitting/rubbing anything all through its travel up and down. (pushrod guide should just be wider than pushrod and the closed end of the guide should not hit the push rod at all)

2nd thing is check that the rockers are not hitting /rubbing anything except the push rod cavity for the push rod ball and the end of roller does not touch anything except the valve tip. (roller doesn't run off end of tip of valve, etc)

If it was mine I probably would have bought chromoly push rods that has no balls on it.
