I use the exhaust open/intake close method. I put my ratchet wrench on the crank bolt, then my jack handle over the ratchet to turn the engine. I adjust the valves cold, and then, when I'm done, I go back and check them all again. I try and get them all to feel exactly the same -- it ends up taking me the better part of a weekend to do it. If I had to bill you for that valve adjusting job you'd crap in your pants when you saw the price tag.
Over this four day Holiday weekend, I did a full chassis lube on the Cobra. That's six universal joints, four ball joints, and two tie rods. It took me two days to do it all.
