I just dealt with this problem a few weeks ago. I have never had troubles adjusting the valves, until this last recent attempt. I tried going thru the firing order, with no such luck.

Some highly respected guys on here suggested an easy way to do it would be too simply put the exhaust lifter all the way down, then adjust the intake. Now put the intake all the way down, and do the exhaust. Do this working your way thru the whole system. When I got the pushrods to zero lash, I went 3/4 of a turn this time. I usually only go ½ turn, but was tired of messing with the car at that point and wanted to get it done the first time. This worked perfectly and the valve train is silent once again.

This is all assuming you have stud mounted rockers.
