For hydraulic cams:

With #1 at TDC, adjust 1,2,5&7 intake and 1,3,4&8 exhaust for zero backlash plus 1/4-1/2 turn preload, then rotate engine one revolution for #6 at TDC and do the same thing with the rest of the valves.

For solid lifters follow the same procedure except use cam manufacturers backlash specification and 0 preload. If block or heads are made of aluminum, allow a few thousands extra backlash cold and recheck hot.

Adjust the valves, when its cold the metal shrinks and the valves stay open when the day starts warming up, or friction from turning it over and over will heat the block and expand the metal closing the valves that's why it starts in the day or when its warm. adjust the valves and it will start every time.
