If you know the firing order you can adjust valves with the lifter on the base circle center of the cam without counting turns.

Chevy V-8 18436572

Make a chart using the first 4 in the firing order above and the last four below:

1843
6572

Watch the exhaust valve on #1, when it closes and the intake just starts to open, adjust the valves on #6, watch #8, adjust #5, etc. Works on solid lifters also for setting cold clearance before starting. Two revolutions of the crank and you are done.

Works on any engine with an even number of cylinders, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, etc. Don"t know what to do on 3"s, and 5"s.
