many adjusters today are much longer from the ball to the thread so the old "3 thread" setup no longer works and results in too short pushrods
I like the adjusters up as close to the rocker as possible leaving some room for adjustment


while roller tip rockers do not get the side thrust that iron or stock rockers do they need the fix shown in the pic above

Iron rockers need a fix if off because they can give side thrust




From the bottom of the rocker to the end of the ball. And that's as long as the oil feed hole to the adjuster is drilled right under the part where the adjuster goes through.

I had one set of Crane W-2 rockers that had the oil hole about .090 lower than directly under where the adjuster comes through so you has to run the adjuster a bit lower or you'd smoke the adjuster.

That was the only set of rockers I've ever seen drilled like that.
