Frankiee, I read that book many years ago ,and it is a reprint of much older info. I have an engine rebuild shop and have been doing truck , tractor , and industrial engines for more than 30 years . Also do some automotive engines. If you want an accurate valve setting do it with the engine stopped, if you want a flatrate job do it running . 3/4 of the engines I work on, come in without the vehicle or tractor or the frame that they normally run in and are expected to be ready to start and run when they leave. Some of which we test run in a stand for at least an hour. And for allen , Many of the ind engines have marks on one of 3 places( accessory drive , damper, or flywheel ) that are for setting the valves . If you are good enough to see that mark and feel the clearance at that point and no other , you are a genious .
A few solid lifter engines that set stopped -- cat, cummins,detroit,mack . george
