I would never ever use stock adjuster set-screws on an engine like yours.
If you get swivel foot adjuster screws, you don't need lash caps, and your slightly shorter pushrods will work perfectly.

can you please explain me why you would never use stock adjusters ?
I have a total valve lift of 10.54 mm and single scat springs.

What about the valve clearance when using lashcaps or swivel feet ?
Still 0,15 mm ?

What Gene said.

With steel pushrods, set your lash to zero.
You can use .1mm with Al pushrods.

IMHO the best adjusters  can be bought from : http://www.tp-technologie.de

Are the rocker shafts easy to drill?

Now the geometry looks good to me
