no oil on 2 rockers

Just finished replacing my heads, and fired it up. Runs great, but I noticed on only 2 rockers on the drivers side little to no oil is coming through the push rods on just 2 rockers? I do have great oil pressure everything else is getting oil I'm thinking something may be wrong? Is it typical to not visually see oil on idle

Sounds like valves may be adjusted wrong, if not bad lifters.

I think I am going to go through and re-do the preload on these lifters again and see if that helps.

No, they probably have 10k on them.
