Like mentioned above, pull the valve cover and wiggle the rockers to test which is loose.
Or solve all your issues and go solid lifters like I did.
I can send you the shim calculator that will tell you the size shim you need after you measure all the gaps with feeler gauges.

I did but I didn't notice anything wrong if you talking about wiggle them sideways they all wiggle and I did pump them in oil to get all the air out before I put them in. I'm not 100 % sure is the lifter but the bottom end is new with wiseco and eagle rods with ACL bearings and the crankshaft was measured and polished before install so I discard a spun bearing I been using the car like this it only sound about 2-2.5K rpm with little throttle almost none
