new intake manifold gaskets problem?

I have a 89 camaro rs v6. I just replaced the intake manifold and plenium gaskets. I also replaced the stock injectors with ones from southbay. I adjusted the rocker arms so that the pushrods were tight. I started the car and it sounds kind of like a harly davison motorcycle. And it wants to stall if you are not hitting the gas. Could it be that the rocker arms are to tight. Thanks

Yes, you have to adjust the rockers when the lifter is on the base circle of the cam.
