You can adjust the valves on an ACVW with only the one set of marks.
Set the engine on TDC #1. Adjust the valves on #1 and the intake on #2
and the Exhaust on #4. Now turn the engine 360 degrees and adjust the
valve on #3 and the intake on #4 and the exhaust on #2. Now you have all
the valves adjusted.

OH, BTW, what did you set your valves at on your Early T-3??? Not .006"
I hope. Early heads have the valves set at .008" intakes, and .010"
exhaust.
