273 rocker info please

Adjustables are what you want if you have them. Most cams with Higher lift have a smaller base circle to make lift. Many times measuring for new pushrods is a must.

With adjustables you can accurately set the preload on the lifter without all the hassle. That would be my thought. Yes I know all about adjustable push rods. Saw many fail and the result was not pretty or cheap to fix.

T/A engines had adjustable rockers with hydraulic lifters from the factory . Go figure

He is wants to run the factory 68 4 speed cam. Assuming he has the 340 rocker system all he has to do is inspect the rockers and shafts, drop the pushrods into the lifters and bolt them on.

Not saying you are wrong, but how much will he gain with perfect preload after spending how much money and the time to do it correctly?
