SBC valve adjustment question.

SBC valve adjustment question.
Im putting a motor together and I forgot the method I used to adjust the valves. I used the method like once the exhaust is open adjust the intake, once the intake started to close adjust the exhaust.
The thing is I forgot which valve to start with and when to adjust them. Anyone with help would be great.

It would take a while to do them one ata time like that, i usually set mine when the engine is being assembled out of the car and never have to re set again. A for in the car i set them at idle when i was younger, now i make sure the valve is closed, tighten till the play is out and go 1/4 turn further. But i make sure the pushrod can still spin.
