It's very unlikely any offset lifters you got would have the same pushrod seat height as the Herbert lifters.........meaning new pushrods will likely be required.

I bought the whole top end setup used. 3/8" comp pushrods. Worked out perfect length. Only about 2-3 threads down on the adjusters. Top of threads level with jamb nuts, for anyone familiar with Jesel paired rockers. Can't even install pushrods by loosening adjuster. Have to remove rockers to get pushrod ball under cup. Just a slight kiss/witness mark getting close to max lift. About .015" clearance to side of wall with lifter at base.

The "correct" adjuster screw setting for Jesel rockers is one turn down from fully seated.

It won't have any affect on oiling. The oil just runs through the center of the adjuster screw. It does affect ratio and strength though. From Jesel: We recommend not running the adjuster turned out more than two revolutions from the fully seated position. All rockers are shipped from Jesel with the adjuster set at one full turn from seated. Operating an engine with the adjusters more than two turns out puts excessive loads on the cup area and may lead to premature failure of the adjuster.
