how do I set my valves after rebuild?

I tourqed my rockers when they were off of the block to 18 ft. pounds and now that I have done a couple of heat cycles, I have a few that seem to be clattering away. How should I correctly tighten them from here?

If they are stock rocker arms then tighten to 25 foot pounds

Also needs to be done while rotating the crank to make sure you are on the closed side of the cam
