Pushrod Problems?

Something is not right. The OEM rockers/adjusters, did not have nuts on the them.
You may be on to something here.
All we know about the engine is we drove it home so it ran.
When we took it apart the original rockers had NO lock nuts on them.There was visible wear on the rockers and shift so we got replacements from Rocker Arms Unlimited and they have lock nuts on them.
You say they arent supposed to have the lock nuts?
We took the lock nuts off and xan get the adjuster to touch the pushrods but the adjuster is threaded WAY in the rocker .Shouldn't the adjuster be like halfway in?

Sorry about the book here and thanks
