OK Whats wrong

I just tried adjusting my valves. 1st I have the engine out. I lined up the notch on the impeller for TDC. When I checked the top of the trans opening I didn't see the notch on the fly wheel. Turned the impeller about 2 inches clockwise and the mark showed up in the opeing ontop of the trans. Whent to try adjusting the first clinder and there was no play at all. I loosened up both valev adjusting screws as far as they can go and still no gap. Checked all the cylinders and the same. Stated turning the engine by hand an watched the valves, Everyone seems to be the same no gap even after loosing the screws as far as they can go. What gives. The engine is a 70 1.7 with 96mm pistons.
