I just use the chart in the Haynes manual (ignoring the typo) which is
essentially the 'rule of 9' (i.e.looking at the 8 valves you note which
ones are depressed and adjust the ones that are 9 minus their position).

Other will have different ideas, but I always set the exhaust valves at
.012 as too loose is a bit noisy but too tight is expensive.
