Whether 1/4 turn, a half turn, 3/4, or even a full turn makes no difference on how the engine will run. If it is quieter at 1 turn (for some unknown reason) than at 3/4, leave it there. Because with a hydraulic cam all you are setting is preload, the hydraulic lifter automatically, constantly, adjusts the lash to zero, the temp isn't an issue. I hope that helps.

I was hesitant to go one full turn after zero lash but 1/4 and 1/2 didn't get the noise out. Only until I read the article by Crane on lifter adjustment again did I try the full turn. It definitely made a difference but I am unsure why.
