I just picked up on this thread and am wondering if you have changed over to a Raptor petcock yet. Your symtoms of having the engine stumble is simular to when my stock petcock started to fail.
Pulling the tank off to get at the valves could of damaged the stock petcock, they really aren't built very well and leak for no real reason except being crap to start with.
Your compression sounds fine at 135psi.
I had almost 17 mm showing on my cam chain adjuster at just over 10,000 miles. depending on your riding style your's might be due soon.
Sounds like you set the valves correctly, if they are too tight the engine just doesn't run right and gets a lot worse when warmed up.
Remember as the engine warms up the clearences close down due to metal expansion so a little loose is better than a little tight.
.004 go/.005 no go is fine for the valve lash, just don't go any tighter.
If you have a Raptor then cleaning the carb would be next. I would start with pulling the bowel and blasting out the underside with some carb cleaner. If that doesn't work then pull the carb and clean it.
Don't make the job any harder than it needs to be.
