adjusting valve lash 422 SB

The 8 position method is the most accurate way to set the valves.

I don’t use it if I’m doing a lash loop or similar but most of the time I use it.

What makes you think they were set right to start with?
Thats the way I've always done it, Just surprised it was this far off. and was thinking I was maybe doing something wrong. Assumed the engine builder or dyno guys would have checked it a little closer. there were a couple valves I don't think were even closing.
Thanks,
