That's likely the problem, the valves need adjusting.
Before adjusting them, retoeque the head bolts.
They are supposed to be set hot, but that is near impossible to do before it cools off.
The hot setting is .014", so setting them .016" cold will be close enough.
You will need a feeler gauge. Remove the plugs so the engine will be easy to turn. Start at the front, turn the engine until the first valve goes closed. Put the feeler gauge between the valve stem and the rocker. Adjust the lash until the feeler gauge just drags but is not tight. Keep turning the engine until you find the loosest point. You will have to turn it through a few times to find it, but that is the best method. Once you find the loosest point,lock down the adjustment, recheck the gap, go to the next one. It gets easier as you get the hang of it.
