Default 3800 Valve series 2 adjustment?

I have a 96 3800 Series 2 that I had to have the heads milled on I am putting the heads back on and I cant find if the valves have an adjustment or not.
I have read 10 different things....They look like they DO NOT. They have a roller setup that looks like positive stop to me. This is NOT a 3.4 or 5.7 that has a stamped rocker.
CAN SOMEONE ANSWER THIS FOR ME
THANKS

dont know but would like to see a picture. if the rockers are on a shaft then there not adjustable. if you have rockers with a bolt holding each of them down then thats were you adjust em. most roller rockers call for 1/2 turn down for hydraulic lifters. arrr the lifters solid or hydraulic.

No adjustment. Your machine shop should know the max amount they can machine off. They should not have gone beyond that. If they did go too far you may be able to shim up the rockers.
