If you feel something solid like a piston may be hitting a valve I would pull the head. You don't want to damage your engine. If the valve spring retainer groove is far enough down on the valve stem your local auto machine shop could probably grind the valve stems to the same length as the old valves. Hal
PS: This was done on the flat head Ford engines so you could get enough clearance since you had no adjustment. I had an old Viking garden tractor and no adjustment on the valves you had to grind the stems and keep checking the clearance.
