good rule of thumb for any threaded fastener is you need the same amount of threads in contact as the diameter of the bolt or stud.

So, if the adjuster is 1/4 inch wide, the rocker should be no less than 1/4 thick at the threaded end.

You do still need to take a bit more off the bottom of those rockers..we can all see it.

The shims will also help raise up the rocker to add more clearance, but you really should be able to get the clearance you need from the rocker and use the shims to set your geometry.

For the future... A large green 50 gallon garbage bag will fit over a motor that is on a stand and keep the dust off it.
