Vintage Sppedster with Hydraulic valves?

Hey guys.. flummoxed.  How do you/ would you know if your type 1 is equipped with hydraulic valves?  When adjusting (or attempting to) valves, get movement on pushrods like it’s spring loaded or quash feeling 1/4 inch thereabouts.  First adjustment go round with .006 increased valve noise.  Did vintage offer this as option or so equip their cars with hydro lifters?  Any external giveaway to know for sure if so equipped?  Thanks in advance for sharing your knowledge/experience. Keith
