rocker arms adjustment

there are a few ways to adj. the lifters, I set mine before the oil pump is primed and the lifters are dry ( as in no oil in them) that way you can "feel " the movement of the lifter .....2nd way is to set them to zero lash and then go another 3 / 4 turn on the adj screw... if the lifters have oil in them go slowly and let the lifter bleed down before turning over the motor . it only takes a couple minutes to bleed down.
