Default 03 f250 5.4 missfire and wont start

did head gaskets, someone swapped the cams on me and i failed to realise this prior to install and turning it over, broke the 4 rocker arms on the intake valves on left side, replaced them, swapped cams, timed to factory specs, now the engine turns over great but after 10 seconds or so it will back fire once very slightly out of the intake, could this be a possible bent valve or do i still need to adjust the timing more?

If you were able to run a compression test ,it could eliminate a lot of questions. Can you do this?
