Default Adjusting Lash on 383 Stroker

Im adjusting the lash for the first time, so im not sure how to go about it. The engine is not in the car as of right now, i do plan on dropping it in within the next couple of weeks. Any insight would be greatly appreciated, i want to get my Vette back on the road soon.
