Check the pushrods...
By Ross - 03/19/2001 7:50:23 AM; IP 205.188.199.36
Years ago on my 390, I did a quick manifold swap and tightened the rocker shaft blts too quickly. Oil will not compress, and the lifters didnt bleed down as quick as I tightened. I bent a bucnh of pushrods. Live and learn.

Maybe you did the same, if you did, next time tighten them more slowly, you need to push that oil out of a very small hole or they have to give somewhere
