Not really any write up, just put them on, and adjust to zero lash. Then depending on the lifters how far you turn after that. Stock is 1/4 turn past that.

I have to do the same thing soon when I change the head gaskets. It helps that they are already set though, so if I take them off carefully, I don't have to really adjust them.

Here is the procedure for adjusting the valves. www.shbox.com is an awsome resource for LT1 maintanence information.

there is a complete write up in one the car magazines, I cant remember but I think it was either car craft or super chevy, its an online write up too, so if you google it, the write up gives you a step by step procedure, if thats what you are looking for, its pretty much the same procedure on any old SBC, valve cover off, old rockers off, new rockers on, set valve lash, but make sure the engine is slightly warm, then and only then will the lash be set correctly.
