I called Texas speed where I got all the parts. They are leaning toward valve float due to not adjusting the spring installed height. I did just slap them in there.

I am going to pull a valve cover and see if I can get a measurement. They said I would likely need about .050 shim OR a .050 lock that drips the retainer. They happen to sell those. Might be an easy and cheap fix.
