Bring #1 to firing TDC and line up the marks on the balancer and timing cover. Adjust exhaust valves on 1, 2, 3 by loosening until pushrod is loose, then tighten until there is no lash (you will feel pushrod drag) Then tighten 1 - 1 1/2 turns (I prefer a little looser -1turn) then adjust intake valves on 1, 5, 6.
Turn engine 1 turn, realign marks, adjust the remaining valves. I wouldleave all of tehm real loose so you can see what has and hasnt been adjusted so you dont accidentally forget one. Be advised. The pushrods on this engine are 2 different lengths, exhaust are long and intake are short
