Thanks, I'll keep to the EOIC method. I found this description from PACEPERFORMANCE.com:
3. Using a long handled ratchet or breaker bar attached to the crank bolt, turn the engine over in the clockwise direction.
A. Starting with #1 cylinder, turn the engine over until the exhaust pushrod just begins to move up.
B. At this point, stop and adjust the intake valve on the same cylinder.
1) Tighten the rocker until you can roll the pushrod between your thumb and forefinger with the slightest bit of resistance.
2) At this point tighten between an additional quarter to half of a turn.
C. You have now adjusted the #1 intake valve. You will now want to turn the engine over while watching the same intake pushrod that you just set, it will go full open and then begin to close. When it is almost closed, stop and adjust the exhaust rocker arm on that particular cylinder. By following this procedure, you are assured that both of the lifters are at the base circle of the cam and that there is no additional pre-load applied to them from cam lift at this point.
D. You are now able to repeat this procedure on the remaining cylinders.
4) Re-install your valve covers and your valve adjustment procedure is finished
