It looks like you are running the same cam I have in mine. I have the Comp Roller tips on mine and have no problems. Are you running guide plates with your setup? If you are are you running hardened pushrods?

What is the lift your springs are rated for? With the 1.6 rollers you are looking at .560 lift.
