You want to set the clearance at .002-.004 HOT. You can play with the adjustment a little to see if it likes more but not by much, probably .006-.008 at most as you basically have no clearance ramps like a solid.
It is the same way you set Comps Pro Mag hyd lifters.
If you have aluminum heads I would set them a zero cold to start & see what you end up with. It will be real close to .004 hot on a small block.
