Managed to shim/centre most rocker arms to valve tips , seems i can't get four ex rollers to centre , they sit around 1/3 over to one side of valve tip , any ideas?

Decided to go pushrod oiling on this 605" , the last time this was built i plugged the oil hole in lifter , i've now opened the oil way in gallery side to .030" , had Smith Bros make me some heavier pushrods with oil holes , do you guys plug the oil way in rocker adjuster? , seems the oil shoots straight out the top of adjuster if not plugged.

TIA.


i had the same thing happen when i went to 1.7,s for my 572-13,s. mine hung over about the same amount too.i sent them back to jessel and they corrected them. they did it by pressing in new bearings to center the arms over the tips.they said you can not just move the old bearings around,you would have to use new bearings.they did this for no charge.
