basically as the exhaust valve starts to open you set the lash on the intake valve for the same cylinder do all the intakes in the firing order first then do the exhuast valves
then when the intake valve closes set the lash on the exhaust
use a feeler guage between the valve tip & rocker tip , the guage should not slide out with no resistance but should pull out with some rsistance if set properly

I assume you have a solid cam if so check what the manufacturer recommend for valve lash, every cam is different then get a feeler gage of that thickness and set it to that.

adjkust until you have zero lash then tighten the adjuster 3/4 of a turn , you do not need a feeler guage
