How tight to set solid lifters

I'm not arguing for or against. I simply stated the method I use over the method I don't. I also know for a fact, that the larger a camshaft gets, the more skewed the EOIC method can become. But again, I'm not arguing the point. Just sharing how I do it.

I'm not arguing either, I'm asking because I don't know.
Until a few weeks ago I'd never adjusted the valve lash on any car. I only used the EOIC method because that seemed to make sense and there was a few tutorials online how to do it.

Your method seems to be the same as what I followed. What I noticed with the overlap of my cam, when I'd finished one cylinder, the next in order (firing) had already moved some, so I needed to go rotate the engine back a touch to get that one where it needed to be.

Also, I found a video of a guy checking the valves on a poly with the engine running. I looked at that and thought "no way in hell am I trying that"
