I know they need to be adjusted every so often it has 23,000 miles, it has 1:6 rockers on it how should i go about asjusting them?

Or they're Rhodes lifters or something... Or the guy is crazy and did it anyhow.

If you mean the Rhoads "variable duration" lifters, they're still hydraulic. They might tick like solids, but that's about it.

E cam is more " radical " but its a hydraulic

And then some

It's not an uncommon practice to use solid roller lifters on a hydrolic roller cam. The only time you would have any real issues is if you try to use hydrolic lifters on a solid roller cam. The best way to adjust them is to adjust one cylinder at a time, turn the engine over untill the exhaust valve starts to open. Then adjust the intake valve to about .010 with a feeler guage. turn the engine over untill the intake is almost closed and adjust the exhaust to about .012. You'll want to make the adjustments with the engine warmed up and you should be good to go.

the e-cam has more lift but the b-cam has slightly more duration
