Lash is no big deal. I had never done it before this car. I verified once hot at 0.025" and then checked cold, which was 0.014". From that point I did it cold. I do it every 750-1000 miles or so, maybe 1000-1500 going forward. I use a remote starter to bump the engine. I use a regular wrench and a t-handle hex. I then use a Precision Instrument dual beam torque wrench to snug each lash nut properly, and verify again. Takes me an hour, all in. I'm sure a pro could do it in less than 10m but my method works for me and helps eliminate bonehead mistakes.
