Re: lifters

If this is happening at start up, quite possibly the lifters are bleeding down,
Watch the coolant level, you may be leaking at the intake again..this time it may be internally.

If oil pressure at start up is good, replace the lifters and that should take care of it.
Personally I like the GM or Felpro gaskets...also make sure they are torqued properly and Loctite the threads
