Just saw a post on another forum. Someone had a similar problem. They pulled the valve covers and re-tightened the rockers. This apparently cured the problem. Shot in the dark, but if you have the tools, its also free

^ One of the many byproducts of having pushrods. Just have someone pull the valve covers and re-tighten them. While they're at it, have them double check the pushrods themselves for any bends, before-hand.
