Some how you need to find out what cam is in it. Do you even know if it is hydraulic or solid? How did you adjust the lifters (explain roughly step by step). Even this really does not matter if you do not know what cam it is.

I'm pretty sure they're hydraulic flat tappet lifters. I rotated the engine until each lifter was on the base circle, I tightened
The rockers until the push rod barely stopped spinning then went 1/4 turn or so tighter, then locked them with the lock screw. I tried 3/4 turn first but then had no compression so it mustve been too far.
