A quick and accurate way is, while turning the engine over by hand, set the intake clearance when the exhaust is just beginning to open and set the exhaust clearance when the intake is almost closed. Do the same on each cylinder. Works on any engine.

The post below about setting them with the engine running is incorrect- that only works with hydraulic lifters. How do you tell if you have hydraulic lifters?- If your manual gives a spec for valve lash, you don't have 'em.
