Lifter preload

how much lifter preload is needed with stock lifters? running MS4, stock heads, stock length pushrods, and adjustable HS roller rockers. just need to know desirable amount for best hp and not too much valvetrain noise. thanks!

I dont kno how helpful this will be but with my LT1 I tightened just to zero lash then went another 1/4 to 1/2 turn past zero lash.
