Well the above was probably caused by valve float; when we do that with solid rollers we just beat the bearing out of em and drive the wheel further and further into the body of the lifter (I haven't had one disintegrate in there yet but some guys have brought them back pretty close)... Reckless, what weight of oil are you running in the engine? Also, I'm with Brian on this one, you really need to determine if this problem is related to the induction. It is suspect that the engine did not lay down on the engine dyno with a carburetor, but does now with the efi mod. All the points you brought up are valid and may be the cause; it just seems prudent to start with the only real change made from then to now.
