Since you road tested it and got everything up to temp..I would go over it one more time....
Check your wires...re-set the timing....it should be warm when you do the timing anyways....Is it down on power?? Could be the valves need resetting?

Sounds like you have skip...you should be able to tell if its valvetrain related...does the motor sound snappy at idle?? or lose power/miss under load??..Hows the F/P???
 
fp is fine at idle it sounds nice actuall except for the valve tap which isnt always there sounds like it collapses the lifter and then it pumps back up i do think i found one bad wire ill chang them tommorow and hopefully the valve covers too what do you mean skip?
