Dave,
Matt is much better at this than me. But I asked my son and he said at TDC the valves should be seated and they should have slight clearance between the valve and the lifter. In other words a feeler gage could slip in there. So maybe pull the head, open the valve cover and check what Matt is suggesting.
Good luck. Let us know. Wasnt this the one that you had the crank in and out several times getting the end gap correct?
Regards,
Chris
