Well I guess I'll have to live with the noise coming from the valve cover, even after grinding the casting flash it still makes noise but no where as loud as it was. The push rods were rubbing inside the heads but it ticks like the rockers are loose so I am just going to ignore it until its time for a cam or head change possibly back to la style heads or eddy magnum heads. check out the pics. if you look close you'll notice the push rod are not in the lifters, thats because of the casting flash inside the head. hope this helps someone who may be having more than average noise from these cams.
