The best way I have found to set hydrualic lifters is to open the exhaust slightly then begin to tighten the intake rocker until you can barely turn the pushrod with your fingers @ this point the lifter is at zero lash then you can tighten the rocker a quarter turn to put the recomended .004 lash needed. simply reverse this to adjust the exhaust valves.
