You can always check with feeler gages the difference from the adjustment nut bottomed out = 0 turn it measure until you get to exactly what you need no need to rely on thread pitch.

S.E. pushrods are 5/16-24. One full turn is .041. Three is .123. One flat .007. Total .130. I've never used Woods lifters, I set the Harley lifters are set at 2 1/2 turns.
