If your rockers are non-adjustable the only way to change pre-load is to
shim the rockers or to buy longer/shorter push rods.
I don't know if the stock motor had hydraulic lifters or solid lifters,
though I suspect they were hydraulic. When I put together my hydraulic
lifter motor, I counted the turns on the rocker are bolt. Then I did
some math to figure how that relates to lifter pre-load.
