HC's is unburnt fuel so my guess is a dead cylinder.  Most likely when you adjusted the valves after headgasket you have one too tight and its creating a dead cylinder.   Readjust your valves very loose.  Like clacking loose then drive it for a few days.  It will clean out the carbon build up and allow the valve to fully seat again.  Just to check for any other problems I would do a compression check on it.
