I an not sure if this applies as the engine I had this problem on was a 327. Yeah, i know it's a chevy but it was in a 1950 GMC PU so that makes it better. The 1.6 rockers were allowing the pushrods to contact the heads. They made a specific tool to clearance the head, and the problem went away after this was done. Look for shiny spots on your pushrods! Just my $0.02 Aaron
