Mad, I’m not following, if I set it to .287 the oil flow will hit the pushrod below the cup and not on the adjuster at all and if it needs to hit the adjuster above the ball then it will have to down more than it is now.

Here is a picture where I have a witness mark of where the adjuster hits the rocker arm. I was thinking I could cut it back .020-.030 and maybe have it seated. It would basically be the same as the relief for the spring retainer on the other side.
