When using Porsche swivel feet adjusters on stainless valves along with the steel pushrods, how should the adjusters feet be positioned on the valves? Should they be directly centered with the contact surface of the valves or should they be offset a tad?

No offset, maximum engagement, swivel adjuster will rotate the valve. Stock adjusters are offset to cause valve rotation. Zero lash with the steel push rods, I have the adjuster engage the valve tip, but I make sure the swivel foot rotates

Thank You for your input, I would ask this, Is the consensus of "the collective" on this matter? Or are there other opinions?
