No need for them. You use those on Type I engines where the pushrod tube is sandwiched between the head and the case. The Type IV engine slides the tube through the head into the case. You can even replace the seals without dropping the motor....

I am going to open the engine completely to rebuilt it, and I think adjustable pushrods will be easyer to mantein.

No, they are not.

The stock design is by far superior if the correct preparation and sealing techniques are used.
