i would use a feeler gauge it would just make it a lot easier on yourself,because if you dont do that you need to be able to feel the pushrod..

If you are hydraulic you set preload so no feeler gauge used.Torgue rocker studs to 22 ft lbs with blue locktight.If the car has centerbolt valve covers (99-02),then you will need to remove the oil baffle in the drivers side valve cover and the boss for its mount.
If this is for solid roller set clearance as per cam card.I used about 1/2 turn of preload and had good results with stock lifters.
