doing some googling, looks like the reach is just too short seems like Edelbrock calls for .750

Danny called me this morning to talk through it, one of the thoughts he had was valve adjustment. They are roller rockers but hydraulic lifters. The way I adjusted them to 0 lash was when the exhaust was open set the intake & when the intake was closing set the exhaust
i then turned another quarter turn and locked them down
sound right?
