    check that you got the comp nut set properly and tight, that everything
    is installed correctly, it takes a lot of TQ and some red locktite,
    also check the primary chain tensioner.

    My bet is the compensator, too. Make sure you torque it to specs. It will run loose, but it ain't good.
