Fatory lash for stock Chevy engines are zero lash. plus one, and one ONLY, full turn. If you have a solid lift cam that is not a stock cam and the lash soecs should have come with the installation instruction. Done properly there is absolutely no need to have the engine running with the valve covers removed to properly set valve lash. Get a good service manual and follow the instruction exactly.

How do you adjust valves on 6 hp Briggs and stratton engine?

You have to set the piston at Top Dead Center (TDC). I beleive the lash adjustment (valve clearance) is .004 to .006 in. That means thousandths. Once you have set piston at TDC (valve springs will not be compressed but extended on the compression stroke at TDC). You can now set the lash adjustment by loosening the set nut and bolt. You need a feeler gauge to do this. Set lash on both valves then recheck.
