head pnp resurfaced, new valves, valvetrain

block honed resurfaced, new pistons, rings

added an extra layer to a headgasket used only 50 miles, so it should still be good.

could it possibly need a valve adjustment?

could be the valves if you rings seated allready you shold be good to go. i would just keep driving it and dont really worry about it. as long as you speced your rings correctly you should have no problem

a good rule of thumb is that your lowest cylinder should be within 80% of your highest.

If its a fresh motor give it a little more time to seal up. Do a leak down test before you start worrying about anything.
