And what causes the heads to lift and with doing 6.4 pushrods and the headstuds help the factory heads last and I also already did the exhaust the intake and the egr delete blue spring fuel kit intercooler pipes and I'm just running a super chips tunner

In all honesty, yank the heads and spend the money. Have yours worked and valves/seats done. Strong advice, o-ring them and use the latest felpro gasket with studs. Do it once. Get a friend who drinks beer and set him with a cooler and file to just go over the deck of the block for about an hour.
