RE: No idle, none at all
the way I set the valve was like this
-to adjust the intake valve turn the engine over until the exhaust valve is completely opens and its all most closed-stop adjust the intake valve with no pre load,turn it half a turn now lock it.
-to adjust the exhaust valve turn the engine over until the intake valve is completely open-stop adjust the exhaust valve with no pre load turn it half a turn,now lock it.
is this ok

its against the procedure and im %100 sure your are missing out on ponies, and your cam lobes and offsets are not sufficiently in line with your crank's, intended appropiations.

I know alot of us didnt do it right , and some noticed no noise, or performance loss,
that is because you have a hydraulic lifter that compensates for some play, but you are destroying the top end and they are somewhat quiet

RE: No idle, none at all
its no biggie, it will not hurt the bottom end.
to help, i removed my fan with the 11mm or u can use 7/16 wrench. A 24mm socket and pipe half from my floorjack to turn crank clockwise and do one cyl at a time, and thats how i earned my muscles lol what a workout! when that intake is out, thats a GREAT time to replace that thermostat,
bottom bolt on it PITA

RE: No idle, none at all
actually its a work out 
!! not a major PITA, TAKES ME AN HOUR, you an hour or less, just remove then upper plenum, then lower intake manifold.
Get it out the way and never see this again[8D] TAKE YOUR FAN OFF, 11mm wrench 4 bolts, crank turned clockwise 23mm or 24mm socket on it with 1/2 ratchet is faster with pipe or large wrench on end if resistance is there, all u doing is turning crank wathching ONE CYLINDER AT A TIME, and when one valve does this, you do that[8D]
oh yeah here yall go to , when tightening lower intake manifold, dont forget to rtv all 4 corners of front and rear gaskets
