It's OK

It's OK to run it with no water pump and no balancer, just to check the Opti. Just don't run it too long or something will overheat !

Adjustment?

Are you adjusting the fit of the hood or the latches at the rear? The front has shims and bolts, the latches have bolts. Be careful if adjusting up by the hood hinges..
