Post Adjust RR running or not running??

Will I put about 60 miles on my motor today and I can start to hear a rocker tapping. I had a hell of a time adjusting them when putting the motor together. It was like some of the lifters were solid. I think it would be a pain to adjust them with the intake on.
How did you guys adjust your rockers? They are stud mounted full roller.Thanks for the help.

the books usually say to adjust with the jam nut and lock them with the hex. if you give them a slight tightening with the jam nut and the hex after adjusting them, the jam nut will make the hex nut even tighter than you could get them with a hex key because the keys bend so easily. this should get them tight enough not to go loose again.
