Bobby,

As Sean says check the cam lobes really close, to make sure there's no wear ?? Also, the lifter bottoms for cupping with a straight edge ... I had the same think happen last year, it was a pushrod had gone thru a stock rocker at the 1,000' mark ....Took the top apart to be sure there wasn't any damage inside also drain Oil & filter and check ....May sure you check the spring pressure, to be sure it didn't float & hit something ? Now's the time to be safe & check everything before it gets real expensive .... I was lucky, it was only the rocker arm & harden pushrod's did their job....Checked everything & replaced the rocker arm & went fast again .... Good Luck ...
